Between 1965 and 1968, the celebrated French philosopher Alain
Badiou hosted a televised series in which he interviewed some of
the most influential contemporary philosophers of the period,
including Michel Foucault, Paul Ricoeur, Michel Henry and Michel
Serres. This book presents the first English-language translation
of those interviews. Although Badiou had yet to publish the books
that would go on to mark him out as the leading thinker of his
generation (Being and Event and Logics of Worlds), his unique
approach and highly original ideas are present in each discussion
and the interviews present his philosophical origins in a lively
and engaging context. More importantly these highly accessible and
entertaining interviews provide a snapshot of French philosophy in
the 1960s, setting the scene for the very public and political
context of philosophy in the period immediately preceding the
events of May '68, where philosophy played a crucial role. The book
includes a new essay by Badiou in which he reflects on the project
30 years on.
