God & Man
By stripping religion of its supernatural dimension, the sciences of man reveal its true meaning.
Science of Man & Human Professions (Vol. 1)
It is not its object that determines the type of a science, but the way in which it apprehends it.
Science of Man & Human Professions (Vol. 2)
All sorcerers since the dawn of time have been able to identify the effects of a plant and transmit that knowledge.
Science of Man & Human Professions (Vol. 3)
Adrien Morel explores the distinction between the general and the universal in order to extend his reflection on the foundations of the humanities. He shows that this confusion influences both research and society, particularly in the fields of care and politics, and calls for these logics to be overcome in order to refound a truly universal humanism.
The Future of Religion in Secular Societies
For Adrien Morel, if religion defines and constitutes civilization, it also ensures its maintenance. What becomes of a civilization that no longer has a religion? Can societies without religion even exist?
Academic
Elements of Ontology
The succession of ontonomies, or civilizations, since the beginnings of humanity, is part of a movement, a process of refinement. Everything is in place for the naturalist ontonomy, established since the Renaissance, to give way to the one that must succeed it.
Elements of Glossology
In this book, the author continues and completes the restoration of the Theory of Mediation model, begun in his previous work. This restoration is necessary because the TdM model was affected by a structural flaw.
The Structuring of Being
Adrien Morel unfolds his model by exploring the structuring of being, from the subatomic to the transcendent.
Ideological Knowledge, Fundamental Knowledge & Applied Knowledge
In this book, Adrien Morel establishes and organises the different dimensions of knowledge and disciplines.
Elements of Ergonomics
The author continues his exploration and restoration of the Theory of Mediation by addressing the human faculty of the Tool.
Elements of Axionomy
Here, Adrien Morel models the human faculty of Norm by reorganising the entire Freudian corpus. In doing so, it gains a spectacular epistemic added value, while anthroponomy receives the support of experimental clinical verification.
Éditions du Promontoire
An anthropological and humanist vision.
Éditions du Promontoire is an independent publishing house founded in 2009, dedicated to the publication and dissemination of reference works in the humanities. Its mission is to make theoretical studies devoted to understanding the human being, human structures, representations, and evolution within civilizations accessible to as many readers as possible.
At a time when the intellectual, cultural, and spiritual landmarks inherited from the past are undergoing profound change, the humanities now represent an essential field for shedding light on contemporary transformations. Anthropology, epistemology, psychoanalysis, and linguistics provide the necessary tools to analyse the foundations of culture, thought, and human societies.
Éditions du Promontoire is committed to this process of transmitting and sharing knowledge. Its editorial approach is based on the publication of structured, demanding, yet accessible works, rooted in a rigorous intellectual tradition, notably inherited from the work of the Rennes School and the Theory of Mediation.
Its catalogue, primarily shaped by the work of Adrien Morel, offers a coherent body of texts designed to guide readers through a progressive exploration of anthropological foundations, the structures of language, cultural mechanisms, and the major questions that run through the history of civilizations.
Éditions du Promontoire addresses all those who wish to deepen their understanding of the human being: students, researchers, teachers, professionals in the humanities, as well as readers engaged in a process of reflection and discovery.
More than a publishing house, Éditions du Promontoire is a space for intellectual transmission, contributing to the dissemination of the humanities and to the emergence of a renewed humanist thought, suited to the challenges of the contemporary world.
