The collection of texts seems to be built upon the idea of intellectual power brought forth by modernity (in terms of the success of rationality over the superstitions, the scientific approaches of efficient causality, the organization of production in accordance with capitalistic relations) and the increased capacity of individuals able to manipulate these instances to overcome current challenges. The book can be divided into two parts, the one builds around the most debated issues over Modem Europe (questions concerning our relation to God, several re-interpretations of classical metaphors, the importance and the position of natural knowledge in our path through gaining intellectual power and a sovereign position) and can be easily regarded as constructed under the sign of Cartesianism, while the second half of the book deals with the particularization of the aforementioned ideas, insisting on the different forms of alienation associated with the concept of intellectual power achieved in Modem Europe.--Abstrat

The major aim of the book is to introduce to the Romanian public a number of interesting works belonging to some of the most influential contemporary figures and to open further exploratory pathways in the realm of culture and knowledge. Simultaneously and of equal importance, another aim of the project has been to present the young Romanian translators who devoted themselves to the task of deciphering and introducing the texts to the Romanian public. Assuming this task, the book addresses a wide range of audience, from young researchers, linguists, philosophers, and historians to a larger public interested in the ideas that significant!}' contributed to the development of the last century of European thought.
