Europa cura te ipsam! Essays in honor of Rémi Brague

The present Festschrift was born as a tribute to the scientific production of Rémi Brague.This study collects the interventions of several thinkers, with different scientific profiles,who, fond of reality, have reflected on, and been in dialogue with his thought. Brague hasexplored many spheres: anthropology, metaphysics, religion, history of religions, aesthetics, ethics, politics, and cosmology – where he recalled those anchors in the sky where mankind throws its roots. We have decided to entitle this collection Europa cura te ipsam! inspired by on the admonition of the famous Medice cura te ipsum. As Brague has repeatedly observed, and recently with no little pessimism, it is now up to Europeans to recover their history and look to their future. We hope that the present work can be a stimulus for today’s thinkers and for generations to come, certain that the search for truth is an endless inquiry where harmony and cooperation among thinkers constitute progress.
