Of the Sublime: Presence in Question [made in istanbul]

Librett's labor yielded such a masterpiece that its invisibility is not without reason. In this wonderfully worked out volume, he translated Cerisy essays by

Jean-luc Nancy
Philippe Lacoue-labarthe
Jean-François Courtine (very rare in english)
Michel Deguy
(the goddess) Elaine Escobar
Lyotard
Louis Marin
Rogozinski

burn down the letters, let pages get blind, for sublime is a terror and syncope, there remains for you, the task: laugh.
