In this series of interviews, Jean-Luc Nancy reviews his life's
work. But like Schlegel's historian-"a prophet facing
backwards"-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.
