520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC.
Summary, etc. Maurice Blanchot is a towering yet enigmatic figure in twentieth-century French thought. A lifelong friend of Levinas, he had a major influence on Foucault, Derrida, Nancy and many others. Both his fiction and his criticism played a determining role in how post-war French philosophy is written, especially in its intense concern with the question of writing as such. Never an academic, he published most of his critical work in periodicals, and led a most private life. Yet his writing included an often underestimated public and political dimension. This posthumously published volume collects his political writings from 1953 to 1993, from the French-Algerian War and the mass movements of May 68 to post-war debates about the Shoah and beyond. A large part of the essays, letters, and fragments it contains were written anonymously and signed collectively, often in response to current events. The extensive editorial work done for the original French edition makes a major contribution to our understanding of Blanchot's work. Read together, these pieces form a testament to what political writing could be: not merely writing about the political or politicizing the written word, but unalterably transforming the singular authority of the writer and his signature.
