Following the narratives explored in Hominescence, Incandescent and The Bough, Michel Serres continues and concludes his 'grand story' of humanity and humanism.

With characteristic breadth and imagination, in telling the story of humanity, Serres also tells us why Orpheus lost his frie...

Volume one of this first English translation of Michel Serres's foundational series establishes a new way to think about the production of knowledge during the late twentieth century. With Hermes I, we observe a singular poetic philosopher seeking to bridge the gap between the liberal arts and the sciences through a profound mathematical and poetic fable regarding information theory, history, and art"--

Agen 1945, Vincennes 2019: Die Angaben am Ende von Michel Serres' letztem Buch markieren die Eckdaten seines Lebenswegs und unterstreichen, wie lange er an diesem Projekt gearbeitet hat. Geboren als Sohn eines Flussschiffers in Südwestfrankreich, wurde Serres zunächst Seemann, später Philosoph an der Pariser Sorbonne und Mitglied der prestigereichen Académie française. Zeitlebens kreiste sein Denken um das Verbindende: Boten wie Hermes, den Sc...

In attempting to reconcile humanity and nature, Serres examines how human history 'branches' off from its origin story.

A ottantasette anni compiuti, ovunque celebrato tra i più acuti epistemologi dei nostri giorni, Michel Serres rivendica per sé un unico privilegio: sconfessare motivatamente chiunque deprechi il presente in nome di un passato migliore. Catastrofisti e declinisti di ogni risma sono avvertiti. Non sarà consentito loro alcun vagheggiamento del buon tempo andato. Ogni nostalgia del «prima» dovrà mostrare il proprio volto ipocrita di difesa di prer...

The Birth of Physics represents a foundational work in the development of chaos theory from one of the world's most influential living theorists, Michel Serres. Focussing on the largest text still intact to reach us from the Ancient Greek Atomists - Lucretius' De Rerum Natura - Serres mobilises everything we know about the related scientific work of the time (Archemides, Epicurus et al) in order to demand a complete reappraisal of the legacy. ...
