[eccr] International Society for the Study of European Ideas - The Narrative of Modernity

ISSEI
International Society for the Study of European Ideas

Ninth International Conference


The Narrative of Modernity:

Co-Existence of Differences


Nowadays the Ethos of Individualism is regarded as a Myth rather than an 
Ethos hailing from the 17th Century Scientific Revolution and the 18th 
Century European Enlightenment

The Narrative of Modernity is, in a sense, the attempt to save the idea of 
Individualism from its esoteric background, without falling into moral 
Nihilism. The articulation of the Self in the context of coexistence with 
Others is the great challenge facing the European Mind, or simply, facing 
Europeans. Western civilisation has to meet the challenge of the legend of 
the disappearance of the Self. For this central issue it is imperative to 
rearticulate the unity of theory and practice on the one hand, and to break 
down the barriers within Humanistic Studies on the other.
