Over a span of thirty years, twentieth-century French philosophers Emmanuel Levinas and Jacques Derrida held a conversation across texts. Sharing a Jewish heritage and a background in phenomenology, both came to situate their work at the margins of philosophy, articulating this placement through religion and literature. Chronicling the interactions between these thinkers, Sarah Hammerschlag argues that the stakes in their respective positions were more than philosophical. They were also political. Levinas's investments were born out in his writings on Judaism and ultimately in an evolving conviction that the young state of Israel held the best possibility for achieving such an ideal. For Derrida, the Jewish question was literary. The stakes of Jewish survival could only be approached through reflections on modern literature's religious legacy, a line of thinking that provided him the means to reconceive democracy. Hammerschlag's reexamination of Derrida and Levinas's textual exchange not only produces a new account of this friendship but also has significant ramifications for debates within Continental philosophy, the study of religion, and political theology.

Au cœur de "L'homme sans qualités" se trouve la question de la vie juste: comment dois-je vivre? Ce roman montre les différentes réponses que lui apporte Ulrich, le personnage principal, mais aussi les raisons à la fois ordinaires et profondes qui lui font se la poser. Dans cet ouvrage, Pierre Fasula offre une lecture puissante et originale du roman de Robert Musil. Il en restitue le sens philosophique en montrant la manière dont le travail romanesque, les idées de roman pour reprendre l'expression de Vincent Descombes, contribuent à la clarification de la question de la vie juste et des réponses envisagées par Ulrich. Cette question témoigne d'un certain sens du possible, d'une capacité à imaginer d'autres vies que la sienne - mais ce sens du possible est à la mesure de l'indifférence croissante d'Ulrich pour son métier, son pays, lui-même. Il apparait alors que ce sont le refus des possibilités existantes et la mise à distance de la vie et de l'homme moyen qui expliquent l'échec des solutions imaginées.
