| Publisher Description: Modern philosophical thought has a manifold tradition of emphasising the moment. The Moment demands questioning all-too-common notions of time, of past, present and future, uniqueness and repetition, rupture and continuity. This collection addresses the key questions posed by the moment, considering writers such as Nietzsche, Husserl, Benjamin, and Badiou, and elucidates the connections between social theory, philosophy, literary theory, and history that are opened up by this notion. |
