Jean-Luc Nancy stands as one of the great French theorists of
"deconstruction." His writings on philosophy, politics, aesthetics,
and religion have significantly contributed to the development of
contemporary French thought and helped shape and transform the
field of continental philosophy. Through Nancy's immense oeuvre,
which covers a wide range of topics such as community, freedom,
existence, sense/ touch, democracy, Christianity, the visual arts
and music, and writing itself, we have learned to take stock of the
world in a more nuanced fashion. In this collection, contemporaries
of Nancy and eminent scholars of continental philosophy, including
Giorgio Agamben, Etienne Balibar, Ginette Michaud, Georges Van Den
Abbeele, Gregg Lambert and Ian James, have been invited to reflect
on the force of Nancy's "deconstruction" and how it has affected,
or will affect, the ways we approach many of the most pertinent
topics in contemporary philosophy. The collection also includes
Jean-Luc Nancy's previously unpublished 'Dialogue Beneath the
Ribs', where he reflects, twenty years after, on his heart
transplant. Nancy Now will be of critical interest not only to
scholars working on or with Nancy's philosophy, but also to those
interested in the development and future of French thought.
