Description
Badiou's Conditions offers a sustained critique of the notion that philosophy is at an end. Instead, he proposes a new definition of philosophy and explores its relationship with various disciplines.
The essays in this work are organized around four key conditions: philosophy and poetry, philosophy and mathematics, philosophy and politics, and philosophy and love. This reworking of major theories provides insight into the concepts central to Badiou's philosophical project, while also introducing new ideas.
Through its systematic exploration of these conditions, Conditions reveals the complexity and depth of Badiou's philosophical enterprise.
