Beschreibung
In this series of interviews, Jean-Luc Nancy reviews his life's work. But like Schlegel's historian-"e;a prophet facing backwards"e;-Nancy takes this opportunity to rummage through the history of art, philosophy, religion, and politics in search of new possibilities that remain to be thought.This journey through Nancy s thought is interspersed with accounts of places and events and deeply personal details. The result is at once unpretentious and encyclopedic: Concepts are described with remarkable nuance and specificity, but in a language that comes close to that of everyday life.As Nancy surveys his work, he thinks anew about democracy, community, jouissance, love, Christianity, and the arts. In the end, this is a book about the possibility of a world a world that must be greeted because it is, as Nancy says, already here.
