What Was I Thinking? serves as an initiation into the realm of thought. Jalal Toufic, with his analytical mind, creates an open-ended "summa" that explores the arts as a privileged site for thinking, even amidst inevitable failures. He juxtaposes his insights with texts from traditional religions and mystics, achieving a serene detachment and joy in thinking reminiscent of Nietzsche's understanding. Toufic stands out as one of the most original thinkers today, embracing the challenge posed by Heidegger in What Is Called Thinking? His exploration ventures into uncharted artistic territories, delving into their layers, paradoxes, and inherent inaccessibility. This endeavor requires immense courage and unique freedom, allowing his mind to pursue unpredictable conclusions, ensuring his writing remains relevant. His work resonates with the spirit of Einstein's General Theory of Relativity and Nietzsche's breakthroughs, establishing Toufic as a significant intellectual force.
