Unrolled Stone: Heidegger’s Being and Time, Brian Jones, and the Rolling Stones
()
About this ebook
Unrolled Stone proposes to do nothing less than treat the Rolling Stones for the first time ever as a genuine cultural phenomenon worthy of what might be called ‘philosophical’ attention. The fundamental significance of this analysis acquires its incisive shape on the scaffolding of Heidegger’s Being and Time. Even though the focal point of the existential analytic employed focuses around the late Brian Jones, still the book is designed to situate the truth-claim of the Rolling Stones within the broader horizon of a universal radical uprootedness which constitutes the necessary point of departure for any serious reflection concerning the very meaning of existence in today’s belongingless historical epoch.

His duty completed, once more he went back into academics as a graduate student at the East-West Center, University of Hawaii, where he studied Comparative Philosophy, and was awarded an equivalent M.A. degree in Comparative East-West Philosophy, with a specialization in Contemporary European and Indian Philosophy. He then moved to Long Island, New York, and worked full time as a journalist (cultural editor and news correspondent) for the Moniebogue Press, a regional newspaper in Westhampton Beach for almost a year, in order to save money for a permanent move to Germany. And there he has remained (Tübingen – 1974) ever since, starting a second life, and putting down new roots. Still active at the German-American Institute after all these years (25), he is now basking in the bliss, or afterglow, of a semi-retired life…
