Summaries and Reviews
Amazon.com description: Product Description: This translated collection of all of Alain Badiou's writings on Samuel Beckett makes clear Badiou's claim that "the lesson of Beckett is a lesson of moderation, exactitude and courage." A deliberate and erudite challenge to orthodox Beckett scholarship, these essays trace the development of Beckett's art from the expansive early works through the claustrophobic world of The Unnamable and finally to engagement with Other and Love. This contribution to literary analysis is an important addition to Badiou's increasingly popular philosophical works.
