Description
Cultural theorists Hassan and Ruiz explore the concept of integral
reality as articulated first by Jean Baudrillard in Le Pacte de
lucidité ou l’intelligence du Mal (Éditions Galilée: 2004)
“The
effacement of God has left us face to face with reality. What about
the effacement of reality? Is this a negative destiny, or simply the
absence of destiny, the advent of an implacable banality, linked to
the integral calculation of reality? But, fate has not said its last
word." Jean Baudrillard (July 27, 1929 - March 6, 2007)
