«La Barbarie à visage humain» is the philosophical essay by Bernard-Henri Lévy, published by Livre de Poche in paperback (216 pages, in French).
A philosophical essay that lays the foundations for a new historical pessimism. Drawing on recent and remote history, and on literary and metaphysical references, Lévy argues that life is a lost cause, that man is a failed god, and that the master is always right; optimistic and progressive fables, he says, lead the world to catastrophe.
Work originally published in 1977. This Livre de Poche edition, from the Biblio-Essais collection, reproduces the complete text.
For readers interested in philosophy, political criticism, and French pessimistic thought.
Bernard-Henri Georges Lévy is a French public intellectual. Often referred to in France simply as BHL, he was one of the leaders of the "Nouveaux Philosophes" movement in 1976. His opinions, political activism, and publications have also been the subject of several controversies over the years.
