Résumé :
|
Being and Event is the greatest work of Alain Badiou, France?s most important living philosopher. Long awaited in translation, Being and Event makes available to an English speaking readership Badiou?s groundbreaking work on set theory, the cornerstone of his whole philosophy. This wide ranging book is organised in a careful, precise and novel manner, reflecting the philosophical rigour of Badiou?s thought. Unlike many contemporary Continental philosophers, Badiou, who is also a novelist and dramatist, writes lucidly and cogently, making his work far more accessible and engaging than much philosophy, and actually a pleasure to read.
