About the author

Maurice Blanchot

149 books628 followers
Maurice Blanchot was a French philosopher, literary theorist and writer of fiction. Blanchot was a distinctly modern writer who broke down generic boundaries, particularly between literature and philosophy. He began his career as a journalist on the political far right, but the experience of fascism altered his thinking to the point that he supported the student protests of May 1968. Like so many members of his generation, Blanchot was influenced by Alexandre Kojeve's humanistic interpretation of Hegel and the rise of modern existentialism. His “Literature and the Right to Death” shows the influence that Heidegger had on a whole generation of French intellectuals.

Les textes composant cet ouvrage intéressent tous « l'écrivain », celui qui connaîtrait, intimement, cette « misère ». Celles de Blanchot et de Lacoue-Labarthe sont particulièrement importantes (à moins qu'il ne s'agisse de ma propre "joer cartes sur table", pour ainsi dire). Les fragments du premier apparaîtront plus tard dans L'Écriture du désastre, mais《Lettre (c'est une lettre),》de Lacoue-Labarthe, n'a jamais été publié ailleurs. Dommage, car ce texte est très important pour la question de la littérature, sa possibilité et son impossibilité - étant donné que ce livre est si difficile à se procurer de nos jours.

Peut-être qu'un jour je tenterai de le traduire - mais pour l'instant, mais un《peut-être.》
