Philosophy and Desire (Continental Philosophy)by Hugh J. Silverman
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:Philosophy has for centuries investigated the question of desire for another person, for happiness, for knowledge, for transcendence, and so on. This volume attempts to sort out the various ways in which desire happens through readings of contemporary figures such as Bataille, sartre, de Beauvoir, Levinas, Irigaray, Barthes, Derrida and Deleuze. Synopsis:Philosophy and Desire, the seventh book in the well-known Continental Philosophy series, examines questions of desire — desire for another person, desire for happiness, desire for knowledge, desire for a better world, desire for the impossible, desire in text, desire in language and desire for desire itself. The theme of desire is explored through readings of contemporary figures such as Merleau-Ponty, Bataille, Sartre, de Beauvoir, Levinas, Irigaray, Barthes and Derrida.
