Opis

Reworking much of the material contained in 'Private Observations' (2001), this further volume of aphoristic philosophy goes deeper into the distinction between gender-conditioned forms of culture and civilization, as well as develops a more comprehensive perspective on sin and grace on the one hand and crime and punishment on the other, specifically with regard to a distinction between nature and psyche in both sensuality and sensibility. Also of especial note here is the departure from previous ascriptions of will, spirit, ego and soul to each gender in favour of the modification of psyche attendant upon a natural bias and, conversely, the modification of nature attendant upon a bias towards psyche. All in all, 'The Myth of Equality' succeeds in bringing John O'Loughlin's philosophy to an inequalitarian and very pluralistic head, such that confirms the desirability of what could be termed 'elemental comprehensiveness' on both class- and gender-conditioned terms.
