What counts as music for contemporary thinkers? Why is music of use
to philosophers and how do they use it in their work? How do
philosophers decide what music is and what assumptions are
uncritically inherited in this move? And what is the philosophical
relationship between music and gender? To answer these questions,
Sarah Hickmott looks at the way music is used, characterised and
understood in the work of Jean-Luc Nancy, Philippe Lacoue-Labarthe
and Alain Badiou. Despite the differences in their
philosophical-theoretical positions, all of these writers invoke
music - both directly and indirectly - to negotiate their
relationship to ontology, politics, ethics and aesthetics. Given a
longer philosophical history, dating back at least to Plato, of
aligning music with the feminine, she also focuses on the way
gender is deployed, understood and constructed within the
philosophy of music.
