Literature, philosophy, nihilismthe uncanniest of guests /[electronic resource] :Shane Weller. - New York :Palgrave Macmillan,2008. - x, 234 p.

Includes bibliographical references (p. 222-229) and index.

Absolute devaluation : Friedrich Nietzsche -- Homelessness : Martin Heidegger -- Fatal positivities : Theodor Adorno -- The naive calculation of the negative : Maurice Blanchot -- Bad violence : Jacques Derrida-- The fracture : Giorgio Agamben -- Distortions, or, Nihilism againstitself : Gianni Vattimo -- The denial of (Greek) thought : Alain Badiou.

Since Nietzsche's appropriation of the term in his later work, the concept of nihilism has played a decisive role in the thinking of both modernity and postmodernity. This book charts the deployment of that concept by some of the most influential philosophers and literary theorists of the modern period, including Heidegger, Adorno, Blanchot, Derrida,Agamben, Vattimo, and Badiou. Focusing inparticular on the ways in which each of these deployments involves both a countering redeterminationof nihilism and a privileging of a certain concept of the literary for what is taken to be its powerof resistance to it, Weller proposes neither a critique nor a revalorization of nihilism; rather,heexplores through an historical, conceptual, and philological analysis the various ways in which nihilism, as what Nietzsche terms the b1 suncanniest of all guests b2 s, returns to haunt the thoughtof those who would counter it.
