This book formulates a new theory of subjectivity in the context of
the claimed "death of the subject" in the post-modern and
post-human age. The new theory is developed against the conception
of the subject as a transcendental ego whose constitutive roles,
recognition, and representation lead to the objectivization and
totalization of the world and denial of its inner infinity and
heterogeneity. Critically scrutinizing ideas from Bergson, James,
Husserl, Heidegger, Derrida, Zen Buddhism, and Chinese Zhuangzi,
and through an analysis of time and temporality, this book advances
a number of new concepts, including "primal sensibility" and "pure
experience," and proposes a porous structure of subjectivity with
an ex-egological and ex-subjective zone that allows nothingness and
absence to ground presence. Such a theory of subjectivity provides
the basis for an understanding of thinking as imagination and
self-identity as narrative presentation in the intersubjective
world.
