A collection of works on the history and practices of time
Cosmopolis - Stephen Toulmin
A very accessible understanding of how Modernity emerges out of the late Middle Ages as a desire for “certainties” arising out of the conflicts and terrors of the European violence of the seventeenth century.
Rejoicing - Bruno Latour
A lesser known work of Latour’s that shouldn’t be. A very personal and remarkable understanding of what it means to be non-Modern and religious at the same time.
The Time that Remains - Giorgio Agamben
A reading of St. Paul that will change the way you see him. Also a great way to understand Walter Benjamin’s w e a k messianic power.
