Overview

This volume shows how Nancy was able to deconstruct the founding sign of all metaphysics and all transcendence by redefining the concepts of existence, corporeality, and community, opening them up to the disclosure of the outside, to the exception of the world. It draws on the work of the Italian philosopher, Roberto Esposito and includes a dialogue between Nancy and Esposito. The overcoming of the modern perspective is covered by Descartes and Hegel, who are analyzed in light of Nancy.

Philosophical Deconstruction

This text proposes a deconstruction of the Western tradition in its philosophical, aesthetic, and political registers and conveys a new ontology that breaks with the categories of the One and the Multiple, the Universal and the Particular, in order to identify the relationship between the plural and the singular and understand what it means to be together, to be in common, to be in the world. It is suitable for scholars, researchers, and students of philosophy and comparative literature.
