This edited collection examines


alternative or entangled modernities as
competitive narratives that blend ethics,
aesthetics, and critical thinking to depict
the human condition. It includes chapters
covering the rivalry between scientific
and aesthetic revolutions; contemporary
trends in postmodernity; and
study-cases on visual arts and cinema.

The collection applies a


philosophical view of visual arts and
cinema, and competitive narratives of
(post)modernity that arise from ethics
and aesthetics as complementary fields.

Through the examination of other early texts the book locates the physician as a seminal figure in ancient society,
first with religious significance, and later with increasingly philosophico-intellectual meaning, the physical
embodiment of the search for moral-pragmatic professional standardization. This inquiry is put to the test as
applied to the existential threat and crisis of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Dr Oana Șerban is Executive director, Research Center for the History and Circulation of Philosophical Ideas, and
PhD Lecturer, at the University of Bucharest, Faculty of Philosophy, Romania.
