In the wake of World War I and, later, the Nazi and Soviet disasters, major philosophers such as Kojčve, Levinas, Heidegger, Koyré, Sartre, Merleau-Ponty, and Hyppolite argued that man could no longer fill the void left by the "death of God" without also calling up the worst in human history and denigrating the dignity of the human subject. In response, they contributed to a new belief that man should no longer be viewed as the basis for existence, thought, and ethics; rather, human nature became dependent on other concepts and structures, including Being, language, thought, and culture. This argument, which was to be paramount for existentialism and structuralism, came to dominate postwar thought. This intellectual history of these developments argues that at their heart lay a new atheism that rejected humanism as insufficient and ultimately violent. 410 0$aCultural memory in the present. 606 $aAtheism$zFrance$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aHumanism$zFrance$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aPhilosophical anthropology$zFrance$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aPhilosophy, French$y20th century 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aAtheism$xHistory 615 0$aHumanism$xHistory 615 0$aPhilosophical anthropology$xHistory 615 0$aPhilosophy, French 676 $a128.09/04 700 $aGeroulanos$b Stefanos$f1979-$0307498 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910457967303321 996 $aAn atheism that is not humanist emerges in French thought$92442752 997 $aUNINA
