«De la ligereza» is an essay by Gilles Lipovetsky on contemporary society, published by Editorial Anagrama in paperback (344 pages, in Spanish).
Lipovetsky argues that lightness is a central symptom of Western civilization: it permeates art, technology, consumption, and personal relationships. Against the heavy morality of early modernity, it promises freedom and comfort, but also generates fragile bonds, anxiety, and social contradictions.
Part of Anagrama's Argumentos collection (number 501), translated by Antonio-Prometeo Moya. Originally published in French as «De la légèreté».
For readers interested in the philosophical and sociological analysis of contemporary culture and in the work of Gilles Lipovetsky.
