Calculation and passion. Poetics of an economic person. Vogl J.

, from the many “new people”, which gave rise to the field of anthropological experiments of our time, only an economic person survived. This is enough to turn this type, its origin and circumstances of its formation and development into the subject of historical analysis. The study of Joseph Flya discusses a variety of relationships between the economy, political theory, anthropology, on the one hand, and literature and aesthetics - on the other, it draws a line from Baroque to Education and Romanticism and further until the first decades of the 19th century. We are talking about the poetology of knowledge, addressing both discursive strategies of economic science and the economic filling of literary forms, to the relationship of economic text and textual economy. Together they create the scene on which he now reigns “Homoeconomicus”: as a copy that intended to become nothing more than a person at all.
