Concept and Form is a two-volume monument to the work of the
philosophy journal the Cahiers pour l'Analyse (1966-69), the most
ambitious and radical collective project to emerge from French
structuralism. Inspired by their teachers Louis Althusser and
Jacques Lacan, the editors of the Cahiers sought to sever
philosophy from the interpretation of given meanings or
experiences, focusing instead on the mechanisms that structure
specific configurations of discourse, from the psychological and
ideological to the literary, scientific, and political. Adequate
analysis of the operations at work in these configurations, they
argue, helps prepare the way for their revolutionary
transformation. This first volume comprises English translations of
some of the most important theoretical texts published in the
journal, written by thinkers who would soon be counted among the
most inventive and influential of their generation: Alain Badiou,
Yves Duroux, Alain Grosrichard, Serge Leclaire, Jacques-Alain
Miller, Jean-Claude Milner, and Francois Regnault. The book is
complemented by a second volume, consisting of essays and
interviews that assess the significance and legacy of the journal,
and by an online edition of the full set of original Cahiers texts,
produced by the Centre for Research in Modern European Philosophy
at Kingston University, London and accessible at
cahiers.kingston.ac.uk.
