that nick land piece is a personal favorite of mine. glad to see someone else enjoyed it too.
Which Nick Land? The Shamanic Nietzsche or the one on Death? I have a lot of his essays in my archive if you want any. By the way, with your knowledge of French texts and our shared common interests, do you have any suggestions for the bibliography (including your suggestions on Simont and Gueroult, etc., which I’m still in the process of adding here). I’m definitely only started in collecting texts together, but you seem to have a really unique perspective on contemporary theory. I’ll be sure to include these questions in my email.
can philosophy become art?
both Land pieces are memorable, but the Thanatos one is probably one of my all time fav essays, even if i don’t ultimately agree with him, which is second to the pleasure of reading his work at all.
if you read french, macherey’s “hegel ou spinoza” is something i’ve wanted to read for a long time.
dunno, there’s lots. have you looked at Conway’s “nietzsche and the political”? it should speak to many of the topics you’ve been posting on lately.
ps. we need to assemble a list of possible translation options for Claire. let’s be in touch in the next couple day about it.
oh, i forgot. Zourabichvili wrote his magnum opus on Spinoza, “Spinoza and the physics of thought”, you might look at that. it’s not too hard to get on french amazon.
down the road, if i get time to read it in the spring, i might even consider translating it. we’ll see. gueroult’s books are more important as far as the history goes…we’ll see.
