Virgil Nemoianu

Virgil Nemoianu (, 12 March 1940 – 6 June 2025) was a Romanian-American essayist, literary critic and philosopher of culture. He was generally described as a specialist in comparative literature, but this is a somewhat limiting label, only partially covering the wider range of his activities and accomplishments. His thinking placed him at the intersection of neo-Platonism and neo-Kantianism, which he turned into an instrument meant to qualify, channel, and tame the asperities, as well as what he regarded as the impatient accelerations and even absurdities of modernity and post-modernity. He chose early on to write within the intellectual horizons outlined by Goethe and Leibniz, and continued to do so throughout his life. Provided by Wikipedia
