Transcription
Biography
André Comte-Sponville was born in Paris, France. He studied in the École Normale Supérieure and earned a PhD from Panthéon-Sorbonne University, and is aggregated in philosophy.[1] He is a proponent of atheism and materialism, but in a particular form, because of his spiritualistic aim.[2]
The most important aspect of his work is an overcoming of traditional materialistic atheism in a perspective of post-materialism, because he demonstrates a spiritualization of atheism. This is especially present in his essay L'esprit de l'athéisme, published in 2006.[citation needed]
