The birth to presence

Jean-Luc Nancy (Author), Brian Holmes (Translator)
The central problem posed in these essays, collected from over a decade, is how in the wake of Western ontologies to conceive the coming, the birth that characterizes being. The author discusses being and representation in relation to Hegel, Schlegel, Baudelaire, Nietzsche, Freud, and Heidegger.
