Best known for his 1947 memoir L'Espece humaine, Robert Antelme
(1917-1990) is a central figure in the history of the European
response to the Nazi concentration camps. In this first study in
any language to be devoted to Antelme's work, Martin Crowley
reveals the author's vital yet insufficiently recognized influence
on recent thought in France and elsewhere about such questions as
the nature of community and the indivisibility of humanity. He
explores the conclusions Antelme drew from his deportation and his
involvement with the post-war French left, and provides the first
detailed textual criticism of L'Espece humaine. Examining the
responses to the author's writing by such figures as Blanchot,
Perec, Agamben, Nancy and Derrida, Crowley demonstrates Antelme's
key contribution to the development of modern European thought.
Martin Crowley is lecturer in French at the University of
Cambridge, and Fellow of Queen's College. He has also written on
Marguerite Duras.
