Max Scheler, born in 1874, was one of the most important philosophers of the 20th century. His works, covering a wide range of topics from ethics and religion to sociology and anthropology, had a huge impact on the development of contemporary thought. Scheler was known for his phenomenological method, which allowed him to thoroughly analyze the human experience and reveal hidden structures of consciousness.

"Ressentiment in the Structure of Moral Systems" is one of Scheler's most important works, in which the philosopher analyzes the concept of resentment as a source of negative values and attitudes. Scheler shows how resentment can lead to a distortion of morality and its subordination to the interests of the weak and envious. This book is an important contribution to understanding the social and psychological mechanisms that shape our values and beliefs.

Scheler diagnoses contemporary bourgeois-industrial civilization in a pioneering and revealing way that is still relevant today. He blames actions caused by resentment for subordinating "life values" to "utility values." In addition to these polemical issues, he develops an excellent phenomenological analysis of the phenomenon of resentment, which became part of the canon of 20th-century philosophical thought. This book is a must-read for anyone who wants to better understand the contemporary world and their place in it. Immerse yourself in the depths of Scheler's thought and discover new perspectives on morality and values. Format 123x197 mm, paperback, 248 pages.
