The Hope Principle Volume 1

"His philosophical initiative allows us to take a deep look at the logic of things that seem irrational. While he sails like a master captain in the ocean of the human heart, he addresses human longings with a deep understanding. These are talents specific to the artist. Ernst Bloch is also an artist; he has the psychological view of a great writer." "He has a remarkable style: among the majestic mountain ranges of his prose, one can find mounds; this prose is covered with waterfalls of brilliant eloquence and sparkling glaciers of humor. But Bloch is not a poet who strayed into philosophy. He also uses the techniques of the artist."
Eric J. Hobsbawm

Ernst Bloch is a thinker who is one of the exceptional figures of Marxist humanism, with his passionate, engaged, but always at odds with orthodoxy and dogmatism. Philosopher of optimism: He attributes an essential value to man's will and transformative action, which is not satisfied with what is available, but desires and dreams. Against the automatism of economic-political objectivism; It highlights the spirituality of dissatisfaction, rebellion, dreams and utopia. His masterpiece, The Principle of Hope, is the most abundant harvest of this intellectual labor that left its mark on all his works.
The Principle of Hope, on the other hand, is a book that walks and talks through the history of civilization. From the history of religions to the world of medieval thought, from alchemy to modern science, architecture, literature, visual arts, the inputs and outputs of modern life, from folk cultures to popular culture... the narrative of a philosopher who is no stranger to anything related to humans.
