Contents On the task of becoming human -- The love of wisdom -- Time and worlds : shades of Marburg, Freiburg, and the "left bank" -- Dynamic freedom and the finite structure of human existence as character -- Imagination -- Analogical thinking as a tool for understanding why are we so weird and what can we do about it? -- Love : an example of "a way's" lighting the path -- Balance and integration.
