Conclusion
摘要
This chapter provides a summary of the central theme of the book: Améry’s adoption of existential thought as a life-affirming philosophy in the aftermath of catastrophe, and its subsequent failure in the ensuing decades. I argue that my analysis expands upon recent developments within the scholarship that engage with the more philosophical dimensions of Améry’s work. Its novel contribution is being the first sustained scholarly engagement in the English language to discuss the role of existentialism in Améry’s life and thought.
