First Edition
Softcover. Condition: Good. First Edition. Alain Badiou is arguably the most important and original philosopher working in France today. Swimming against the tide of postmodern orthodoxy, Badiou's work revitalizes philosophy's perennial attempt to provide a systematic theory of truth.This volume presents for the first time in English a comprehensive overview of Badiou's ambitious system. Beginning with Badiou's controversial assertion that ontology is mathematics, this volume sets out his theory of the emergence of truths from the singular relationship between a subject and an event. Also included is a substantial extract from Badiou's forthcoming work on the logics of appearance and the concept of world, presented here in advance of its French publication.Ranging from startling re-readings of canonical figures (Spinoza, Kant and Hegel) to decisive engagements with poetry, psychoanalysis and radical politics, Theoretical Writings is an indispensable introduction to one of the great thinkers of our time.The volume also features a preface written by the author especially for this collection.

First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: USED_ASNEW. Dust Jacket Condition: As New. 1st Edition. 1st Printing. 617 pages. Published in 2009. The author's sequel to "Being And Event". One of the most important philosophical texts of the 20th century. The first appearance of the title in English and in the United States. Precedes and should not be confused with all other subsequent editions, particularly the Softcover Edition. Published in a small and limited first print run as a hardcover original only. Presents Alain Badiou's "Logics of Worlds: Being And Event Volume 2" in a felicitous English translation. The completion of his masterwork, which was missing an account of what it means to live in a World. "Fifteen years after Badiou's ground-breaking work first appeared in French, the greatest and most influential contemporary French philosopher finally presents his readers with a truly remarkable follow-up, answering many of the questions posed by his critics and continuing the development of his fascinating theories of truth, subject, and event. Essential reading for Badiou's considerable following and anyone interested in contemporary Continental philosophy" (Publisher's blurb). Badiou would be another merely glamorous academic philosopher were it not for the fact that his philosophy is probably the most pragmatic and idealistic at the same time since Marx. He is more of a Hegelian than Marxist, but he is profoundly engaged in the idea of transformative innovation of a situation (which sounds Marxist), what he calls the "rupture" that gives birth to an Event. The present volume, rather calmly, completes Badiou's Hegelian triad: Being, Event, World: "Culminates in an impassioned plea to live for an Idea". An absolute "must-have" title for Alain Badiou collectors. This title is a great book. This is one of few copies of the First Hardcover Edition/First Printing (American) still available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. Please note: Copies available online have serious flaws, are subsequent printings, or are remainder-marked. This is surely an accessible and lovely alternative. A rare copy thus. One of the greatest philosophers of our time. A fine copy. (SEE ALSO OTHER ALAIN BADIOU AND GILLES DELEUZE TITLES IN OUR CATALOG) ISBN 0826494706. no.
