Description
xInstitution and Passivity is based on course notes for classes taught at the Biblioth鑷ue Nationale de Paris. Philosophically, this collection connects the issue of passive constitution of meaning with the dimension of history, furthering discussions and completing arguments started in The Visible and the Invisible and Signs (both published by Northwestern). Leonard Lawlor and Heath Massey's translation makes available to an English-speaking readership a critical transitional text in the history of phenomenology.
