Merlin Bittlinger: Qualia Extinction, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

Something has gone missing from modern life - and you can feel it. Not a belief. Not a political position. A kind of experience that was once available and no longer is. Qualia Extinction names this loss and explains why it is permanent: not suppressed, not unfashionable, but structurally unavailable. Drawing on phenomenology, critical theory, and metametaphysics, Merlin Bittlinger traces how the bureaucratic-technocratic order formats subjectivity itself, foreclosing experiential possibilities that once defined what it meant to be human. From the warrior's courage to the mystic's transcendence, from intimate presence to political rage - the book maps what has been lost, explains why deliberate recovery is self-defeating, and charts a path from rage through mourning to play.
