Beskrivelse
What does it truly mean to be a man? Ole Bjerg tackles this often-overlooked question in philosophy, offering fresh insights into male identity and existence. His book dives deep into the challenges men face today, from love and work to fatherhood and truth.
Exploring the essence of manhood through philosophy and existential themes.
In The Meaning of Being a Man, Ole Bjerg draws on the ideas of Martin Heidegger and Hannah Arendt to introduce the concept of Being-Man, providing a new perspective beyond typical discussions about gender and identity. This innovative approach opens up a wide-ranging investigation into key aspects of men's lives, including love, sex, work, art, truth, fatherhood, and relationships with women.
The book is accessible to all readers but is especially aimed at men who feel dissatisfied with current academic conversations about gender, yet still see value in philosophical inquiry on these topics.
Ole Bjerg, born in 1974, is an Associate Professor in Philosophy and Economics at Copenhagen Business School. His previous English-language works include Parallax of Growth (Polity Press 2016), Making Money (Verso 2014), and Poker: The Parody of Capitalism (University of Michigan Press 2011).
