Content
Is there a relation between practices of philosophical critique and the possibility of creating new forms of life and thought? We will try to answer this question by turning to the works of several contemporary French philosophers, including Bergson, Foucault, Deleuze, Derrida and Cixous. We will come to grips with their philosophical programs and examine the implications of their ideas for our thinking about reality, knowledge, ethics and the nature of philosophical practice itself.
