Among the first and foremost of American continental philosophers,
Alphonso Lingis refines his own thought through a topic usually
deemed unworthy of philosophical examination-passion. Lingis
criticizes traditional scientific accounts of the emotions as
dividing or disrupting our lives and argues for passion as a
unifying force, a concept which invites philosophical exploration.
The book's structure is twofold. First, it offers an examination of
Lingis's most recent developments through the topic of passion with
essays from some of the most established commentators on the work
of Lingis. Second, it offers a substantial retrospective on
Lingis's thought in relation to some of the major figures in
continental philosophy, namely Levinas, Kant, Heidegger, Butler,
Foucault, and Nietzsche, all interweaving the theme of passion.
Written to celebrate the eightieth anniversary of Lingis's birth,
these essays show how Lingis's thought has not only endured over so
many productive decades but also remains vital and even continues
to grow.
