Beschreibung

Half title with a list of the author's other works on the verso + TP + half title + 9-[204] + [205] = Contents + [207] = Publisher's advertisements + [208] = Printer's information. Octavo. First Edition. In this first of her elemental trilogy -- followed by Elemental Passions and The Forgetting of Air in Martin Heidegger -- Irigaray engages in a critical dialogue with Friedrich Nietzsche in which Irigaray is personified as water. Taking up this highly unusual narrative form, she challenges the "I" of Nietzsche's philosophy, with a narrative that extends well beyond traditional gendered, historical, and even human limits. This work shows the heights of Irigaray's creativity; like water, she invades, corrodes, and ultimately restores the tired, androcentric thread that runs through Nietzsche's philosophy. With her hallmark irreverence, Irigaray playfully -- yet forcefully -- chides Nietzsche for his weighty dramatizations and false universals. Perhaps extending Nietzsche's poetry past its own limits, this work exemplifies Irigaray's greater project: to rethink, rather than abolish, works and writers who treated the feminine with uncritical negligence. Publisher's original wraps with black and blue printing to the front and back covers and to the spine. The rear cover is very lightly streaked (washed) from contact with some foreign object. But this one small defect hardly detracts from this unmarked and very pretty copy of this triguing book by Irigaray. ADDITIONAL PHOTOS AVAILABLE UPON REQUEST. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 1382
