Issues surrounding precarity, debility and vulnerability are now of
central concern to philosophers as we try and navigate an
increasingly uncertain world. Matthew R. McLennan delves into these
subjects enthusiastically and sensitively, presenting a vision of
the discipline of philosophy which is grounded in real, lived
experience. Developing an invigorating, if at times painful, sense
of the finitude and fragility of human life, Philosophy and
Vulnerability provocatively marshals three disciplinary
"nonphilosophers" to make its argument: French filmmaker and
novelist Catherine Breillat, journalist and masterful cultural
commentator Joan Didion and feminist poet and civil rights activist
Audre Lorde. Through this encounter, this book suggests ways in
which rigorous attention to difference and diversity must nourish a
militant philosophical universalism in the future.
