Key Concepts

Book description

Alain Badiou is one of the world’s most influential living philosophers. Few contemporary thinkers display his breadth of argument and reference, or his ability to intervene in debates critical to both analytic and continental philosophy. Alain Badiou: Key Concepts presents an overview of and introduction to the full range of Badiou’s thinking. Essays focus on the foundations of Badiou’s thought, his “key concepts” – truth, being, ontology, the subject, and conditions – and on his engagement with a range of thinkers central to his philosophy, including Plato, Descartes, Spinoza, Heidegger and Deleuze.

Reviews

"For those who have begun reading Badiou and who seek a comprehensive reference of his core concepts, this book is extremely valuable. Each chapter is so rich with textual reference that this book will be helpful in providing much-needed direction in orienting readers new to Badiou's work."
