Zusammenfassung:Explores the concept of historical intermittency in 5 recent French philosophersAndrew Gibson engages with five recent and contemporary French philosophers, Badiou, Jambet, Lardreau, Françoise Proust and Rancière, who each produce a post-Hegelian philosophy of history founded on an assertion of the intermittency of historical value. Gibson explores this 'anti-schematics of historical reason' and its implication for politics, ethics and aesthetics in a wide range of modern intellectual contexts, finding its necessary complement and most powerful expression in a wealth of modern art, chiefly modern literature. The result is a sustained reflection on the possible character of a contemporary philosophy of history and an important contribution to our knowledge of contemporary French philosophy.Key FeaturesReflects on the character of contemporary philosophy of historyLooks at the writings of authors from Wordsworth and Kleist through Flaubert, Rimbaud and Orwell to Lampedusa, Carlo Levi and Sebald
