{"product_id":"being-as-relation-in-luce-emma-r-jones-9783031193040","title":"Being as Relation in Luce Irigaray","description":"Many scholars have struggled with Irigaray's focus on sexuate difference, in particular with her claim that it is \"ontological,\" wondering if this implies a problematically na?e or essentialist account of sexuate difference. As a result, the ethical vision which Irigaray elaborates has not been taken up in a robust way in the fields of philosophy, feminism, or psychoanalysis.\u003cbr\u003eBy tracing the notion of \u003ci\u003erelation\u003c\/i\u003e throughout Irigaray's work, this book\u003ci\u003e \u003c\/i\u003eidentifies a rigorous philosophical continuity between the three self-identified \"phases\" in Irigaray's thought (despite some critics' concerns that there is a discontinuity between these phases) and clarifies the relational ontology that underlies Irigaray's conceptualization of sexuate difference - one that always already implies an ethical project.\u003cbr\u003eThe text demonstrates that an understanding of Irigaray's Heideggerian inheritance - especially prominent in her later texts - is essential to grasping the sense of the idea that sexuate difference is ontological - it concerns Being, rather than beings.\u003ci\u003e \u003c\/i\u003eThis book further develops potential applications of this ontological notion of a \"relational limit\" for the fields of philosophy, feminism, and psychotherapy.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Emma R.
