On Jean-Luc Nancy - The Sense of Philosophy

Informationen zum Autor Darren Sheppard, Simon Sparks, Colin Thomas Klappentext This is the first book to consider the increasing importance of Jean-Luc Nancy's work, which has influenced key thinkers such as Jacques Derrida. All his major works have been translated into English, yet until now little has been made available on his place in contemporary philosophy.By showing how he situates his work in a contemporary context - the collapse of communism, the Gulf War, and the former Yugoslavia - this outstanding collection reveals how Nancy's engagement with Hegel, Marx, Nietzsche, Heidegger and Derrida makes him one of the key contemporary continental philosophers.Providing new perspectives on the issues of sense, art and community, these essays make it impossible to approach philosophy without reference to the work Jean-Luc Nancy. Zusammenfassung This collection makes it impossible to approach philosophy and its relation to the political without reference to Jean-Luc Nancy.
