Reviews
Jean-Luc Nancy is among the most provocative thinkers of art, politics and religion of our time, and this dictionary is everything you wanted to know about his work but didn't quite know how to ask. As a reference work in gives new insights into his key concepts; as a commentary it shows the trajectory of his ever-expanding opus. You will want to read it from cover to cover.-- ""Anne O'Byrne, Stony Brook University"" The Nancy Dictionary opens many pathways into Nancy's writings and their critical reception. Addressing the key concepts and thinkers associated with his work, the Dictionary offers an especially generous set of initiatives in which readers move in and between the numerous texts that compose the extraordinary reach of Nancy's thinking.-- ""Philip Armstrong, Ohio State University""
