Więcej o książce

The book presents a critical examination of the concept of charisma, tracing its evolution from a religious grace to a superficial celebrity status devoid of moral significance. Rieff argues that this shift has led to a cultural crisis where the absence of morality blurs the line between grace and evil. Through insightful interpretations of influential thinkers like Kierkegaard, Nietzsche, and Freud, he explores how their ideas contributed to a therapeutic culture that undermines faith and the recognition of the sacred.
