If Man becomes an animal again, his arts, his loves, and his play must also become purely “natural” again… . But one cannot then say that all this “makes Man happy.” One would have to say that post-historical animals of the species Homo sapiens (which will live amidst abundance and complete security) will be content as a result of their artistic, erotic and playful behavior, inasmuch as, by definition, they will be contented with it. But there is “more.” “The definitive annihilation of Man properly so-called” also means the definitive disappearance of human discourse (Logos) in the strict sense.
