Forgetting souls: Lyotard, Adorno, and the Trope of the Jew
In this article, I engage in a criticism of Jean François Lyotard's tropological approach to Judaism, arguing that his articulation of the "the jew" as figural projection serves to establish and rigidify a number of freighted binaries such as those between reason and myth, philosophy...
