Unrolled Stone (eBook, ePUB)

Heidegger's Being and Time, Brian Jones, and the Rolling Stones

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

*A Fusion of Horizons* Unrolled Stone proposes to do nothing less than treat the Rolling Stones for the first time ever as a genuine cultural phenomenon worthy of what might be called 'philosophical' attention. The fundamental significance of this analysis acquires its incisive shape on the scaffolding of Heidegger's Being and Time. Even though the focal point of the existential analytic employed focuses around the late Brian Jones, still the book is designed to situate the truth-claim of the Rolling Stones within the broader horizon of a universal radical uprootedness which constitutes the necessary point of departure for any serious reflection concerning the very meaning of existence in today's belongingless historical epoch.

He then moved to Long Island, New York, and worked full time as a journalist (cultural editor and news correspondent) for the Moniebogue Press, a regional newspaper in Westhampton Beach for almost a year, in order to save money for a permanent move to Germany. And there he has remained (Tübingen - 1974) ever since, starting a second life, and putting down new roots.
