Abstract
The article aims to explore the theme of posthistoire in the novel Eumeswil by Ernst Jünger, and in a series of publications made by the sociologist and philosopher Arnold Gehlen. We seek hereupon to emphasize the surprising elective affinities between the two authors, as well as to extract from their writings elements that allow us to shed light on some the dilemmas of our own time.
