Description
Book SynopsisA meditation on the human relationships to language and the exigencies of its figuration.
Trade Review"In blending theoretical acumen with literary sensibility, Christopher Fynsk's volume makes an important contribution to the timely and ethical project of
thinking otherwise than Being our human relation to language." --
Symploke"This very important meditation on the human relationships to language will assume a prominent place not only in the field of the philosophy of language but in the expanding field of trauma research. Moreover, it will serve to introduce into philosophical and psychoanalytical thought a new dimension, namely the 'thought of relation.'" -- Elisabeth Weber * University of California, Santa Barbara *
