حقيقة اللباس في الجسد و الذات عند ناصيف نصار

Abstract EN

This is an analytical study of Nassif Nassar’s latest book, The Book of Ishtar: On Dress and the Body, which addresses the human as the source of multiple ways of thought in general and the body in particular.

Including: emotional, artistic, scientific, mental and ethical thinking.

Such thoughts intertwine with each other in an astonishing way forming a unique hierarchy.

In it, rational thinking, along with ethical thinking, occupies a high and distinguished position.

If a person preserves this hierarchy, and lives by its guidance, he might avoid slipping, but if negligent and tyrannical in his way thinking, the fragile balance within the human self will be shaken, and perhaps in society as well, which might lead to severe misery and unforeseeable evils.
