Description: "Michel Henry's Practical Philosophy provides theoretical and applied analyses of Michel Henry's practical philosophy in light of his guiding idea of Life. It is the first sustained exploration of Henry's practical thought in anglophone literature reaffirming his centrality to contemporary continental thought. This book ranges from the tension between his methodological insistence on life as non-intentional and worldly activities to Henry's engagement with the practical philosophy of intellectuals such as Marx, Freud, Kandisky to topics of application such as labor, abstract art, education, political liberalism, and spiritual life. Authored by an international team of leading Henry scholars, Michel Henry's Practical Philosophy examines a vital dimension of Henry's thinking that has remained under-explored for too long."--
