Leszek Kołakowski
Legenda o cesarzu Kennedym: nowa dyskusja antropologiczna
Imagine that most of the globe was swallowed by water, and that part of the land that was left destroyed by numerous explosions. Humanity has survived, but has not survived one of the most important carriers of culture - a book. From the past, there are only 8 of them, and a few more magazines. Years passed, and what people after the "Great Catastrophe" can learn from these 8 books and how are they interpreted ?! It is about Leszek Kolakowski who describes such a situation so philosophically and grotesquely. And in my turn, I try to look at this story in different ways, even through the prism of our time.
The project consists of two books, in different interpretations. The main tool I applied is contrast. The contrast of artistic presentation, the contrast between forms and sizes, the contrast between logic and absurdity ...
Here is the first one.
Enjoy!
