Description
Here Lyotard offers a critical analysis of his own work, an intriguing narrative of his complex and often contradictory lifelong intellectual journey. It focuses on three principal realms of interest — the ethical-political, the aesthetic, and the historical — which are accented in the subtitle as law, form, and event. Lyotard recasts questions relating to justice, philosophy, and Kantian aesthetics in such a way that they take on a new vitality and critical importance. "Peregrinations" has been hailed as one of the most significant theoretical texts of recent years. It is both an ideal introduction to his work and a complex critical reevaluation of his entire theoretical oeuvre.
