Description

The pervasive character of the world is force. But what is force? Clare Connors sets out to answer this question by tracing the concept of force through the writings of Nietzsche, Heidegger, Foucault and Derrida. This thought-provoking exploration delves into the ways these thinkers describe and discuss force, revealing its complex and multifaceted nature. Through a series of close readings, Connors examines how force is rendered in the literary works of these philosophers, as well as in Shakespeare's Henry V, which shares striking similarities with their ideas. This book offers a unique perspective on the concept of force, one that is both intellectually stimulating and deeply insightful into the human experience. By exploring the ways in which thinkers engage with the idea of force, Connors sheds new light on this fundamental concept, revealing its significance for our understanding of the world and ourselves.
