Sarah Kofman's Corpus

156 Seiten, Hardcover

Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Draws connections between the life and writings of philosopher Sarah Kofman.This groundbreaking collection sketches a portrait of Sarah Kofman (1934-1994), the brilliant French feminist philosopher and author of more than two dozen books on an impressive range of topics and figures in philosophy, literature, psychoanalysis, aesthetics, and feminism. Leading feminist philosophers examine the lessons that Kofman's rich body of work teaches us, among them that the work and life of a thinker are inextricably bound together. Each essay navigates the complex connections between work and life, thought and desire, the book and the body to explore the central themes that link together Kofman's interdisciplinary oeuvre-art, affirmation, laughter, the intolerable, Jewishness, and femininity.
