A Lament for the Soul of Atheism. Real Atheism for Real Atheists. Rooted in continental philosophy, phenomenology and existential philosophy, Atheism Reclaimed is original in its attempt to create different existential concepts to give expressions to what an authentic atheism might look like for the 21st Century. Utilizing thinkers like Heidegger, Nietzsche, Bataille and Ranciere, Virno and Sartre, Patrick O, Connor opens up a new path for atheist thought based on questions of time, truth, objects and equality in opposition to more traditional scientific materialist accounts that underline conventional atheism. O’Connor engages with five key moments that, he argues, allow us to begin to build a new conceptual discourse for atheism: Nietzsche’s response to nihilism; the role of objects; an atheistic interpretation of Heidegger’s account of time; the strange relation between truth and violence; and a refiguring of notions of the common.
