More substantial than literary criticism, these essays collectively negotiate literature?s relation to philosophy. Nancy pursues such questions as literature?s claims to truth, the status of narrative, the relation of poetry and prose, and the unity of a book or of a text, and he addresses a number of major European writers, including Dante, Sterne, Rousseau, Hölderlin, Proust, Joyce, and Blanchot. The final section offers a number of impressive pieces by Nancy that completely merge his concerns for philosophy and literature and philosophy-as-literature. These include a lengthy parody of Valéry?s ?La Jeune Parque,? several original poems by Nancy, and a beautiful prose-poetic discourse on an installation by Italian artist Claudio Parmiggiani that incorporates the Faust theme. Opening with a substantial Introduction by Jean-Michel Rabaté that elaborates Nancy?s importance as a literary thinker, this book constitutes the most substantial statement to date by one of today?s leading philosophers on a discipline that has been central to his work across his career. 606 $aLiterature$xHistory and criticism 610 $aBlanchot. 610 $aClaudio Parmiggiani. 610 $aHeidegger. 610 $aHölderlin. 610 $aPhilippe Lacoue-Labarthe. 610 $aValéry. 610 $acritical theory. 610 $aliterary theory. 610 $aphilosophy. 615 0$aLiterature$xHistory and criticism. 676 $a809 676 $a809 700 $aNancy$b Jean-Luc$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0157114 701 $aBononno$b Robert$01620343 701 $aRabaté$b Jean-Michel$0391201 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910810009503321 996 $aExpectation$93953057 997 $aUNINA
