  • On Another Beginning

    Alberto MoreirasARTICLEResearch in Phenomenology2025

    This essay rehearses the notion that exiting the Anthropocene has as a condition leaving behind metaphysics as the dominant mode of thought. It dwells on Reiner Schürmann’s idea of the anarchic practical subject as the subject of antiphilosophy, and it posits antiphilosophy as the locus for a possible meontological thinking of another beginning, using the Heideggerian theme. It examines positions such as Bernard Stiegler’s and Jean-Luc Nancy’s on…

  • What Would Freud Make of the Phrase “I Am an Anarchist”

    Alberto MoreirasARTICLEPhilosophy Today2024

    This essay follows Jean-Luc Nancy’s meditation on whether it is possible for thought to stand before the untenable in the present predicament and his call to confront the alló, the irreducibly other. It looks into Martin Heidegger’s considerations regarding the refusal of world and the possibility of its reversal. It discusses Catherine Malabou on two kinds of outside for philosophy and her privileging of the decolonial outside, which she uses to…

  • Alain Badiou's Age of the Poets

    Open AccessAlberto MoreirasARTICLEPostmodern Culture2021

    This essay examines Alain Badiou's claims concerning the historical end of what he calls "the Age of the Poets": a configuration of thought that keeps philosophy sutured to poetry, which can never be the only condition of philosophy but merely one of them. The Age of the Poets stretches from Friedrich Nietzsche to Paul Celan, and Martin Heidegger becomes its major upholder and representative. For Badiou, undoing the poetico-philosophical suture i…

  • Tiempo de gracia y tiempo de destino

    Alberto MoreirasARTICLEJournal of Spanish Cultural Studies2021Referências: 1

    Este ensayo contrapone las nociones ferlosianas de “gracia” y “destino” y las lleva al terreno de la decisión existencial. Introduce una noción de “infrapolítica” entendida como práctica teórica a partir de formas de vida. Refiere a la noción de “infrafilosofía” desarrollada por François Jullien. Y vincula todo ello a una “fenomenología de lo inaparente” expresamente antisacrificial y, así, antihegeliana

  • A beggaring description

    Carlo Galli, Roberto Esposito, and in general the group of thinkers associated with the Italian journal Filosofia politica have made the claim many times that our contemporary world is through with the conceptuality of modern politics, that most if not all of the productive concepts of political modernity have come to the end of their productivity and now lie in ruins.1 1 See in particular the reflections on the end of the architectonics of polit…

  • Infrapolitics and the Thriller

    Open AccessAlberto MoreirasCHAPTEREthics of Latin American Literary…2007

    If the history of thought is a history of murder, as Max Horkheimer and Theodor Adorno claim in their Dialectic of Enlightenment (117), why couldn't the history of murder become a history of thought? We can link the literary treatment of murder, which seeks to unveil it, not just to express it, with the narrative form called "thriller." The thriller constitutes the dominant and perhaps even normative narrative structure of our time. A thriller is…
