Modern philosophical thought has a manifold tradition of emphasizing "the moment". "The moment" demands questioning all-too-common notions of time, of past, present and future, uniqueness and repetition, rupture and continuity. This collection addresses the key questions posed by "the moment", considering writers such as Nietzsche, Husserl, Benjamin and Badiou, and elucidates the connections between social theory, philosophy, literary theory and history that are opened up by this notion.
SynopsisFriese (Kulturwissenschaftliches Institut, Germany) presents eight philosophical examinations of the meaning of the momentary, or the event, as it relates to concepts of time, duration, perception, cognition, and memory. After an introduction by Freise considering the wider issues of what the moment means to philosophy and literature, essays discuss: the instant in Derridàs reading of Husserl; Goethe's reading of time in "Wachstum" and "Immer und Überall; the treatment of the movement in existentialism; and what the moment means in Walter Benjamin's philosophy of history.
