by JonathanDollimore (Author)
From the eloquence of the philosophers of the ancient world, the early Christian theologians and the Jacobeans' obsession with death, through to the legacy of the 19th-century philosophers and the major thinkers of the 20th century, this text traces mankind's preoccupation with desire's fatal, paradoxical involvement with death.
