BADIOU, Alain <br/><br/>
The Adventure of French Philosophy 

 - London, UK :  New Left Review,  Sep/Oct 2005 
<br/><br/> French philosophy from the 1940s to the 1990s viewed as a third exceptional moment in the history of the indiscipline, after classical Greece and enlightenment Germany. Alain Badiou takes four coordinates for a tour de force of terse analysis: the antecedents of this moment, the enterprises it launched, the links it forged with literature, and the relations it developed with psychoanalysis.
