Originally published in 1990, Philosophy at the Limit was originally part of the Problems of Modern European Thought book series. It explores the theme of philosophy's confrontation with its own limits, in modern philosophers ranging from Hegel to Derrida, including Nietzsche, Wittgenstein, Heidegger, and Gadamer. The author delves into questions of philosophical style, dialogue, and indirect communication, the structural closure of philosophical texts, and performative strategy in philosophy. The book serves as an accessible discussion of many of the complex issues that define continental philosophy. It will appeal to students of philosophy and contemporary thought at every level, as well as to the general reader interested in the core of debates in European thought.
