Life choice. About the variety of human dignity. Biri P.

What is dignity? Where does it come from? What does it mean for each of us? Is it possible to return the lost dignity?

The Swiss-German philosopher and writer Peter Biri describes dignity as experience and the problem of life in its most important moments and in its everyday life. The author reveals the range of ideas about dignity, analyzing its nature in a polyphonic orchestration of stories, parables, and intellectual game.

Based on examples from his own life, from world literature, from cinema, the author fascinates the reader with dramatic searching for an existential experience of threats to human dignity, the search for equilibrium based on self -knowledge and self -determination.

The book is aimed at protecting and gaining self -esteem in a society of blurry moral values ​​and neglect of personality.
