Enigmas argues that our postmodern society is experiencing an "Egyptian moment", an era marked by the objectification in which, while high-tech products assume organic properties, humanity turns itself into a "thing", an issue that supposed to be treated as cynical treatment of the self as an object. Perniola links aesthetics and philosophy to analyze the strategic beauty in the thought of Gratian, Michelstaedter¿s anti-cinycism, Deleuzian¿ fold, the notion of secrecy of Guy Debord, the place of the mirror in Western thought and the relationship between hermeneutics and Utopia, from the meaning as the term baroque has acquired in our world.
