Description

Benjamin Fondane was an artist and thinker who found in every limit, in every border, ‘a torture and a spur.’ Poet, critic, man of the theater, movie director, Fondane was the most daring of the existentialists, a metaphysical anarchist, affirming individual against those great abstractions that limit human freedom – the state, history, the law, the idea. ‘Existential Monday’ is the first selection of his philosophical work to appear in English.
