It proposes a complete theory of human existence organized around a single premise: that the spirit of resistance is the most essential feature of conscious life.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe work moves through eleven chapters, from ontology to ethics to aesthetics to theology. It argues that the human being is not an accidental product of indifferent forces but a singular, irreplaceable self whose dignity is inherent and whose most complete actualization is achieved through the sustained refusal to capitulate - to nihilism, to self-betrayal, to the crowd's demand for conformity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCentral concepts include Geung-ji (긍지) - noble pride as a settled, non-comparative dignity - Romantic Realism as the perception of romance within ordinary reality rather than apart from it, and the claim that philosophy, followed honestly to its limit, opens onto theology: God as the ultimate source of the resistance that the human being participates in but does not generate.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is not a book written for academic recognition or popular appeal. It is a philosophical account of what it means to exist with full seriousness - and an argument that such existence is both possible and demanded.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bongha Lee","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47891696844951,"sku":"9798233498077","price":3358.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9798233498077.webp?v=1781184533","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/resistism-9798233498077","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
