Condición: as new. Stanford : Stanford University Press, c2005. Hardcover. No Dustjacket. xxi,177 pp. Fine. - This book explores several canonical works of philosophy, psychoanalysis, and literature. The surprising juxtaposition of Kant's moral philosophy, Freud's reflections on obsessional neurosis, and Flaubert's peculiar late novel Bouvard et Pecuchet forms the basis of a compelling argument linking each of these central works around the problem of moral thought as it fundamentally determines the modern subject in relation to time. The book engages an area of emerging importance in contemporary critical thought, the problem of ethics or otherness as a crucial factor at play in speculative and literary works. The readings in this book provide insight into the ways in which three fundamental philosophical, psychoanalytic, and literary texts can be reread in light of their confrontation with a seemingly inhuman force at the heart of the foundation of the human subject.

Buch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - 'Such brilliant and original work is rare. Rottenberg demonstrates remarkable skills as a close reader, as a philosophical thinker, and as a scholar. Her extensive experience as a translator of difficult philosophical texts gives her a particularly fine-tuned sensitivity to the linguistic complexities of the languages with which she works. The book provides an unusual example of the finest comparatist work in the humanities and attests to the remarkable illumination that true interdisciplinary work can provide. This book will appeal to scholars of literature, philosophy, and psychoanalysis; to literary critics and theorists; and to teachers who will use it for teaching all three of the authors as well as literary criticism and theory.' --Shoshana Felman, Yale University.
