| Sumario: | This work aims to review El nacimiento del deseo by Florencia Abadi, Ph.D. in Philosophy, researcher at the National Scientific and Technical Research Council (CONICET), and professor of Aesthetics at the University of Buenos Aires (UBA). In her book the author employs fields such as contemporary philosophy, psychoanalysis, and Greek mythology to craft a comprehensive representation of this relentless force within human nature: desire (éros). The work comprises ten essays that delve into the various dimensions of this sentiment, including shame, guilt, betrayal, the historical fantasy of reproduction without women, enigma, cruelty, resentment, the ambiguous figure of the god Dionysus, and, ultimately, her own formulation of Ars erotica. The book is an engaging read and is intended both for a general audience and for readers with prior knowledge in the field. |
