Very Little...Almost Nothing: Death, Philosophy, Literature (Warwick Studies in European Philosophy) - Tapa blanda
Sinopsis
The 'death of man', the 'end of history' and even philosophy are strong and troubling currents running through contemporary debates. Yet since Nietzsche's heralding of the 'death of god', philosophy has been unable to explain the question of finitude.
Very Little...Almost Nothing goes to the heart of this problem through an exploration of Blanchot's theory of literature, Stanley Cavell's interpretations of romanticism and the importance of death in the work of Samuel Beckett. Simon Critchley links these themes to the philosophy of Emmanuel Levinas to present a powerful new picture of how we must approach the importance of death in philosophy.
A compelling reading of the convergence of literature and philosophy, Very Little...Almost Nothing opens up new ways of understanding finitude, modernity and the nature of the imagination.

Reseña del editor
The "death of man", the "end of history" and even philosophy are strong and troubling currents running through contemporary debate. We seem to be confronted with such an "end" at every turning. Yet following Nietzsche's notorious heralding of the "death of god", philosophy's response to the issue of finitude has been found wanting. This volume accounts for this lack in philosophy through an exploration of Blanchot's conception of literature, Levinas' notion of the "il y a", Cavell's reading of romanticism and the presence of death in Beckett's work. These themes are drawn together not in an attempt to restore meaning in the face of finitude, but to enable us to see the meaningless of life as an achievement, the achievement of the ordinary or the everyday.
