Music in Contemporary Philosophy

From the era of the 18th-century European Enlightenment to the present, music has long claimed residency in and served as an important conduit for philosophy. This book examines the various ways the writings of ten contemporary philosophers (from Adorno and Bloch to Badiou and Žižek) attempt to metamorphose philosophical thought on the model of musical sound._x005F_x000D_ This book was originally published as a special issue of Contemporary Music Review.
