JEAN-LUC NANCY is Distinguished Professor of Philosophy at the Université Marc Bloch, Strasbourg. Among the most recent of his many books to be published in English are Corpus, Listening, Dis-Enclosure: The Deconstruction of Christianity, and Noli me tangere: On the Raising of the Body (all Fordham).
Philosophers have largely ignored sleep, treating it as a useless negativity, mere repose for the body or at best a source for the production of unconscious signs out of the night of the soul.
In an extraordinary theoretical investigation written with lyric intensity, The Fall of Sleep puts an end to this neglect by providing a deft yet rigorous philosophy of sleep. What does it mean to “fall” asleep? Might there exist something like a “reason” of sleep, a reason at work in its own form or modality, a modality of being in oneself, of return to oneself, without the waking “self” that distinguishes “I” from “you” and from the world? What reason might exist in that absence of ego, appearance, and intention, in an abandon thanks to which one is emptied out into a non-place shared by everyone?

Great, 不就是像Derrida一樣說話嘛,但還不如Derrida有趣,之前感覺Derrida淨寫些虛無縹緲的東西,相比Nancy,Derrida竟然顯得更grounded,比如Demeure是基於Blanchot,Plato's Pharmacy基於Plato。Nancy發掘睡覺作為一種邊界性概念是ingenious的,但內容真 一句話就能概括 非得 寫本書
評分有意思而囉嗦的小書。我不太喜歡這樣的文風,煞有介事一個姿態的句子接著一個句子敲齣來,敲齣來,不是寫齣來,如果一字一字寫,大概沒有人耐煩這樣鋪陳。盲人說象的文風。可是在快被嘰歪死的時候,又有特彆有趣的東西冒齣來。如果這篇文章的文字抖一抖,把那些沒用的廢話抖落一半,就會很精彩瞭。
