Jean-Marie Guyau our contemporary

The philosophy of life of Jean-Marie Guyau (1854-1888) represents one of the most original perspectives of his time in the fields of ethics, aesthetics and sociological studies. However, despite his influence on authors such as Nietzsche, Bergson, Durkheim and Kropotkin, he has been considered of little importance in the history of French philosophy. This book, to which the greatest specialists in Guyau have contributed, aims to rediscover the relevance of his thought, by asking a fundamental question: who are Guyau's true contemporaries? Does Guyau remain an author of the second half of the 19th century, whose work has been completed by a Nietzsche and a Bergson; or, on the contrary, is his work of a topicality that has not been sufficiently taken into account in his time and that belongs, from a conceptual point of view, to our 21st century?

The book is aimed both at specialists in nineteenth-century French philosophy and, more generally, at those interested in non-linear and unconventional philosophical itineraries.
