Michel Serres and the Crises of the Contemporary: Michel Serres and Material Futures
Editat de Rick Dolphijnen Limba Engleză Paperback – 27 mai 2020
This volume is the first to engage with the philosophy of Michel Serres, not by writing 'about' it, but by writing 'with' it. This is done by expanding upon the urgent themes that Serres works on; by furthering his materialism, his emphasis on communication and information, his focus on the senses, and the role of mathematics in thought. His famous concepts, such as the parasite, 'amis de viellesse', and the algorithm are applied in 21st century situations. With contributions from an international and interdisciplinary team of authors, these writings tackle the crises of today and affirm the contemporary relevance of Serres' philosophy.

Recenzii
This
collection
is
both
timely
and
important.
The
essays
gathered
here
deploy
many
of
the
concepts
and
modes
of
thinking
that
Michel
Serres
has
developed
through
his
prodigious
body
of
work,
to
make
sense
of
the
conditions
of
crisis,
economic,
environmental
and
political,
that
we
currently
inhabit.
They
take
their
impetus
from
the
living
and
loving
sweep
of
Serres's
work,
as
they
range
between
nature,
language,
mathematics,
knowledge,
technology
and
the
senses.
Their
manner
of
thinking
with,
rather
than
merely
about
Serres,
means
that
they
are
able
to
move
beyond
the
parched,
penurious
work
of
critique
to
the
imagination
of
new
ways
of
thinking,
feeling
and
being.
In a collection of 21st century applications for Michel Serres' social and theoretical modelling, Rick Dolphijn has brought together a range of thinkers exercising the dynamic priorities of Serres' thinking, providing us relational strategies and plausible analogues for our time. This collection of writings and interviews helps all of us into the conversations that Serres' vision makes possible.
This important book admirably seeks not only to understand Serres but to use his thought to challenge and re-frame some of today's most pressing social and philosophical debates, from the body and materialism to ecology and the future of the university. Its compelling interventions leave the reader with an acute sense of the contemporary urgency of thinking both with and through Serres. Both scholars familiar with the breadth of Serres's work and those new to the significance and relevance his timely thought will find much of interest and, more importantly, of use in these pages.
