The course is devoted to the roots of contemporary philosophy in the texts of W. Benjamin and Th.
W. Adorno.
The central issue is the relationship of art and thought and the turn to aisthésis in phenomenology and in the works of Jean-Luc Nancy. This is related to the concept of an open, non-totalizing order (from A.N.
Whitehead through Derrida and Deleuze to C. Malabou).
