Męska trwoga Otto Weiningera
Journal Title: Civitas. Studia z Filozofii Polityki - Year 2017, Vol 21, Issue 21
Abstract
Otto Weininger’s work entitled Sex and Character is an important text in the intellectual history of Viennese modernism of the fin de siècle period. The author makes a pessimistic diagnosis of modern culture, which, according to him, is infected by anti-cultural feminine values. With desperate passion, he looks for a way to heal this state of affairs and finds it in the project of male reorientation in culture. To make this plan a reality, he thoroughly redefines sex and gender. The aim of the article is to investigate various paradoxes and contradictions contained in this famous work.
