Blanchot's Communism - Art, Philosophy and the Political (Hardcover, 2004 ed.)

Iyer argues for the transformative potential for philosophy and political practice of the thought of Maurice Blanchot. The book traces Blanchot's complex negotiations of the thought of Hegel, Heidegger, Bataille and Levinas, which allowed him to develop his distinctive account of the work of art and his account of the opening to the Other. Iyer also examines the significance of Blanchot's interventions in French political life, in particular, his participation in the events of May 1968. MARKET 1: 3rd year undergraduate and postgraduate students and researchers in Continental philosophy, especially those studying Blanchot, Heidegger, Bataille and Levinas MARKET 2: Advanced undergraduates and postgraduates of literary studies, aesthetics and political theory
