The Atlas of Happiness The Clitoris as a Microscope of the Body and a Telescope of Humanity A Scientific-Philosophical and Artistic Research on Female Happiness as a New Anthropology of the Future
Authors/Creators
Description
Atlas of Happiness is a philosophical–anthropological and artistic study exploring female happiness as the foundation of a new human paradigm. Subtitled “The Clitoris as a Microscope of the Body and a Telescope of Humanity,” the work proposes a radical reframing of the clitoris as an autonomous organ of happiness, a sensory compass, and a cultural-philosophical instrument capable of redefining ethics, relationships, and the future of civilization.
Bridging philosophy, anthropology, feminist theory, aesthetics, and visionary art, this book argues that female pleasure—historically silenced, erased, or moralized—contains a universal key to human flourishing. Through chapters on anthropology, philosophy, art, literature, education, religion, and a visionary epilogue, the author formulates a new paradigm he calls Cosmic Ethics: a shift from cultures of suffering toward a culture of sensitivity, resonance, aftertaste, and embodied happiness.
The work integrates synesthetic descriptions, provocations, neologisms (e.g., “aftertaste,” “clitoration,” “ecstasm”), and immersive dramaturgy, culminating in a large-scale artistic-therapeutic performance concept (The Mystery of Happiness). It functions simultaneously as a manifesto, a theoretical framework, an atlas of cultural history, and a guide for future interdisciplinary research in human well-being, embodiment, neuroaesthetics, gender studies, and the philosophy of the body.
This preprint is intended for scholars in philosophy, anthropology, feminist studies, psychology, aesthetics, cultural studies, and interdisciplinary well-being research, as well as for artists and practitioners interested in embodied knowledge and sensory methodologies.
