Overview

As many struggle to find meaning at the end of philosophy, Jean-Luc Nancy's writing has enlightened many philosophical debates around the questions of community, the political, and freedom. Situating his work in an explicitly contemporary context -- the collapse of communism, the Gulf War, the former Yugoslavia -- Nancy has forced us to rethink nothing less than what "doing" philosophy entails. On Jean-Luc Nancy: The Sense of Philosophy provides fascinating insights into one of the most contemporary philosophers writing today. The full range of Nancy's work as a philosopher of the contemporary is considered, allowing us to see his engagement with Hegel, Marx, Nietzsche, Heidegger, Bataille and Derrida. Issues of violence and power, finitude, east and west, the meaning of "Europe", and the crisis of the global community are all approached through Nancy's work.
