hardcover. Condizione: Very Good in Dustjacket. Condizione sovraccoperta: Very Good. First Edition. Princeton. 2012. January 2012. Princeton University Press. 1st American Edition. Very Good in Dustjacket. 9780691149141. 272 pages. hardcover. keywords: Philosophy. DESCRIPTION - A PROVOCATIVE REFLECTION ON THE DILEMMAS OF MODERN…LOVE. The sexual revolution is justly celebrated for the freedoms it brought--birth control, the decriminalization of abortion, the liberalization of divorce, greater equality between the sexes, women's massive entry into the workforce, and more tolerance of homosexuality. But as Pascal Bruckner, one of France's leading writers, argues in this lively and provocative reflection on the contradictions of modern love, our new freedoms have also brought new burdens and rules--without, however, wiping out the old rules, emotions, desires, and arrangements: the couple, marriage, jealousy, the demand for fidelity, the war between constancy and inconstancy. It is no wonder that love, sex, and relationships today are so confusing, so difficult, and so paradoxical. Drawing on history, politics, psychology, literature, pop culture, and current events, this book--a best seller in France--exposes and dissects these paradoxes. With his customary brilliance and wit, Bruckner traces the roots of sexual liberation back to the Enlightenment in order to explain love's supreme paradox, epitomized by the 1960s oxymoron of 'free love': the tension between freedom, which separates, and love, which attaches. Ashamed that our sex lives fail to live up to such liberated ideals, we have traded neuroses of repression for neuroses of inadequacy, and we overcompensate: 'Our parents lied about their morality,' Bruckner writes, but 'we lie about our immorality.' Mixing irony and optimism, Bruckner argues that, when it comes to love, we should side neither with the revolutionaries nor the reactionaries. Rather, taking love and ourselves as we are, we should realize that love makes no progress and that its messiness, surprises, and paradoxes are not merely the sources of its pain--but also of its pleasure and glory. Praise for Pascal Bruckner's Perpetual Euphoria: '[A] brilliant book. Perpetual Euphoria is more than a book. It is a manifesto. It is a work of genius. It is my bible.' - Roger Lewis, Daily Mail. '[A] witty, iconoclastic and thoroughly enjoyable polemic [that] shows how anxious and miserable life becomes when it is ruled by an obsessive preoccupation with feeling happy. [Perpetual Euphoria] is studded with arresting thoughts and questions.' - John Gray, Literary Review. Translated by Steven Rendall and with an afterword by Richard Golsan. inventory #38160.

Hardcover. Condizione: Fine. Abnutzung / Risse - leicht; Gebrochener Buchrucken / Seiten oder Softcover umgeknickt. The sexual revolution is celebrated for its freedoms, including birth control, decriminalized abortion, and greater gender equality. However, Pascal Bruckner, a prominent French writer, argues that these new freedo…ms have introduced additional burdens and rules, without eliminating the old ones--such as marriage, jealousy, and fidelity. This complexity makes love, sex, and relationships today confusing and paradoxical. Drawing from history, politics, psychology, literature, and current events, Bruckner dissects these contradictions, tracing the roots of sexual liberation back to the Enlightenment. He highlights the paradox of "free love," which embodies the tension between freedom and attachment. As we grapple with the inadequacies of our sex lives compared to liberated ideals, we shift from neuroses of repression to those of inadequacy, leading to a culture of dishonesty about our desires. Bruckner mixes irony with optimism, suggesting that we should not align strictly with revolutionaries or reactionaries. Instead, he encourages embracing love as it is, recognizing that its messiness and surprises are sources of both pain and joy, ultimately revealing the enduring complexities of human relationships.
