Description: Marquis de Sade and Continental Philosophy by Lode Lauwaert Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description Reads six interpretations of the Marquis de Sade in French post-war philosophy: Klossowski, Blanchot, Bataille, Lacan, Barthes, and Deleuze to show how he sits at a crossroads of surprisingly disparate branches of western culture, from Tom and Jerry to Kants moral philosophy. Publisher Description He might be best known for sex and violence, but Lode Lauwaert shows that the Marquis du Sade sits at a crossroads of surprisingly disparate branches of western culture: abstract art, Tom and Jerry, gnosticism, Kants moral philosophy, romanticism, scholasticism, stoicism and more. To explore these links, Lauwaert reads six interpretations of Sade in French postwar philosophy looking specifically at Pierre Klossowski, Maurice Blanchot, Georges Bataille, Jacques Lacan, Roland Barthes and Gilles Deleuze. Lauwaert shows how these interpretations of de Sade can be read as a lively introduction to a postmodern way of thinking that is often considered inaccessible, but which dominated the French intellectual scene after the Second World War.

He has been a visiting scholar at Boston College, Stellenbosch University and the University of Vienna. His research focuses on war, technology, and continental philosophy.
