Sinossi
Con "L'essere e l'evento" (1988) Alain Badiou pone le fondamenta concettuali del suo sistema filosofico, che troverà il suo completamento in "Logiques des mondes" (2006) e ne "L'immanence des vérités". Attraverso un utilizzo originale della matematica postcantoriana, della psicoanalisi, dell'arte e della politica novecentesche, il filosofo francese intende affermare la possibilità della filosofia all'interno di un presente che non ha mai smesso di annunciarne la fine. Essere, evento, verità, procedura generica costituiscono allora gli strumenti principali con cui Badiou ripensa i concetti cardine della storia della filosofia e sviluppa un'ontologia del molteplice capace di delineare una nuova teoria del soggetto.

This is an extraordinarily embarrassing book, which uses the language and trappings of mathematics to cover a core of nonsense with a veneer of formal rigor. I read this because (I now realize) my filters against the Social Text crowd of neolatin portmanteau abusers (the kind of people who are makin Leggi tutto
Let us imagine the plight of a naive reader who comes to us (because we, for the sake of argument, are people who appear to "know something of philosophy") and says, "I am interested in reading some philosophy because I know philosophers are people who try to grapple with the things of the world in
badiou understands me. i love u alain. i’d give u a big wet sloppy kiss on your droopy old lips for this book.
Like all great works of philosophy, Badiou’s Being and Event is a wager. A wager on the possibility of Events, of ruptures in the weave of things, both personal and political, staking itself there where the possibility of a better world shines like a light through the crack in things. This much, I t Leggi tutto
Alain Badiou does something particularly difficult. He provides a nexus of interplay between formal mathematics (in set theory) and ontology as presented in the philosophical tradition. It's often an understood but unacknowledged fact that explanations don't really "explain" in so far as they transl Leggi tutto
First 300pages were amazing, after that I just got lost. Great book, will reread in the future
I am going to give this 3 stars. This is due to an average. The first half of the book is worth 5 starts for its well written synopsis of philosophy. The second half of the book is worth 1 star for its attempt to apply set theory to social relationships and the humanities. No one in their right mind Leggi tutto
A monumental book that restores the dignity and elegance of mathematics to continental philosophy. Although this is a challenging read, the rewards of this book outweigh the difficulties encountered when attempting to achieve the former. As far as philosophy is concerned, this book presents a fresh
