This book examines the content of a complex perfective anthropology beyond absolute, abstract, negative and minimalist readings. A rich sense of perfection is here to stay because of the ineradicable existential role of gradational estimation in terms of better and worse. The first section focuses on the connection between hermeneatics and perfectionism. The second section introduces a differentiated language of perfection as positive. The third section consolidates and extends the idea of a perfective anthropology. The book ends with a chapter or environmental perfectionism, arguing that a benign human interpretation of non-human nature should include a careful application of the perfective concept of a life story to the realm of plants and animals. This application is meant to underscore the moral insight that we are not the only heroes of perfective being.Scheers, Peter is the author of 'Towards a Complex Perfectionism ', published 2006 under ISBN 9789042916555 and ISBN 9042916559.
