In this inspired and intelligently written, if somewhat sprawling study, the author challenges the narrative view of the self (the equation of life-history and personal identity) in the course of arguing for “a transformed and renewed phenomenology” (81), one that takes its bearings from a hitherto hidden area (the “wild region”) in the historical unfolding of a life. This area encompasses the formation of sense, the unconscious, alterity, and the operative language and creative expressions that exceed the fixed meanings of common or shared experience. In the first half of the book, the author makes his case for this region through analyses of the “experiential sense in life-history” (chapter one) and the “temporality of experience in life-history” (chapter two). In the second half of the book, the focus shifts to alterity, as the author tries to integrate the “experience of alterity” (chapter three) into his account of the wild region in life-history and to sketch an “ethic of alterity” (chapter four) deriving from that region. The project is thus to establish the wild region of consciousness, first broached by Merleau-Ponty, and to bring it to bear effectively on the notion of unlimited responsibility, elaborated by Levinas. The result is a critical review and appropriation of French phenomenology by an independent voice from across the Rhine, paralleled in this regard only by the work of Bernard Waldenfels, whose imprint is present throughout the study.

«Hay una imagen del mundo deleuzeana. La imagen deleuzeana del mundo se define primeramente por el género de sus rupturas, por lo que excluye de raíz: la dialéctica y la unidad externa de lo real. En el lugar de la dialéctica sitúa Deleuze una síntesis de los contrarios en tanto que tales contrarios o «síntesis disyuntiva»; en el de la unidad externa de lo real, una multiplicidad real e inmanente de niveles, complejidades e intensidades de individuación. El mundo de Deleuze es un mundo de procesos de actualización en el que las esencias son, más que estable determinación de las cosas, «haecceidades» definidas como elementos últimos de libre relacionalidad, como «individuaciones sin sujeto». No se trata exactamente de una física filosófica ni de una metafísica tradicional, sino más bien de un apasionado ejercicio ontológico que consiste en convertir a las individuaciones, a los existentes, en síntomas afirmativos de una inmanencia no individuada en sí misma, no formada...»

Nicholas Rescher: Interpreting Philosophy: The Elements of Philosophical HermeneuticsReviewed by Pol Vandevelde, Marquette University
(Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews)Rescher diagnoses contemporary philosophy as multifaceted and fractious, challenging any attempt to find a unity in the proliferation of investigations that are increasingly specific with regard to their topics (for example, the many types of applied philosophy), their perspective (for example, feminism), or their method (linguistic and conceptual analysis or deconstructionism, for example). This specialization and division of labor among philosophers have created a tension between technicality and accessibility, so that "after World War II it becomes literally impossible for American philosophers to keep up with what their colleagues were writing" (48).
