He imports from the rationalists the idea that aesthetic appreciation and creation are rule-governed, yet does not construe rule-following an…
Hume and Kant on imaginative resistance

I argue that discussions of Nancy’s work have failed to recognize a transformation that has occurred in his later thought, which distances him from Jacques Derrida. I propose that Nancy’s later work points the way beyond the “persistence of unhappy consciousness” in deconstruction through allowing for the possibility of the cr…
