Subject: RE: Badiou contra the postmodern


Eric/All

When and if I ever get time this week I'll complete the notes -  I'm very
ambivilant about Badiou calling Lyotard a  'Sophist'  - maybe It's because I
can't help but feel more positive towards the ideas than he does...

Has anyone a refernce for the Lyotard's review of one of Badiou's books ?

Badiou plainly didn't like the review....

I think you are right about Lyotard  and the sublime - I'm investigating the
 truth and event in 'Towards the Postmodern'  (amazing what you end up doing
on ten hour plane flights to remain sane and avoid bad movies....)

regards
steve
