Klappentext zu „The Incident at Antioch. L'incident d'Antioche “
Widely translated and considered to be the most important philosopher of our time, Alain Badiou is also a novelist and the author of four celebrated comedies and two tragedies. The Incident at Antioch is the last of his plays to be published in French and the first to be published in English, introducing a side of Badiou the Anglophone world has never encountered before. As a crucial link between Badious key early philosophical work, Theory of the Subject, and his magnum opus, Being and Event, The Incident at Antioch marks the philosophers transition from classical Marxism to a politics of subtraction far removed from party and state. Written with striking eloquence and extraordinary poetic richness, and shifting from highly serious emotional and intellectual drama to surreal comic interlude, the play features statesmen, workers, and revolutionaries struggling to reconcile the nature and practice of politics. This bilingual edition presents L'Incident d'Antioche in its original French and, on facing pages, an expertly-executed English translation.

Rezension zu „The Incident at Antioch. L'incident d'Antioche “
Badiou resembles Sartre in the versatility, creativity, and energy that make both of them major literary authors as well as philosophers... It is a measure of Spitzer's talent as a translator that she manages to preserve the literariness of Badiou's language - its difficulty, its strangeness, its beauty - while making it vivid and fluid and consistent with the syntactical and grammatical demands of English. -- Joseph Litvak, Tufts University
