Langbeschreibung
"Reading this book makes us people of our own time and not passive figures swept along by time and history." --Yehuda Amichai "By asking how to narrate traumatic events without assuming their predetermination, Foregone Conclusions starts with a novel question and is replete with novel insights. It is of great importance to critical theory, historiography, and philosophy." --Amos Funkenstein, author of Perceptions of Jewish History "Foregone Conclusions has made a permanent mark on my thinking. This book is a moving celebration of ordinary life, with its contingencies, pleasures, sorrows, but most of all its unpredictability." J. Hillis Miller, author of The Ethics of Reading
