Paperback. A fresh and vivid reappraisal of one of the most influential intellects of the modern era Alexandre KojEve is one of the twentieth centurys most seductive and intriguing figures. A product of the Russian merchant bourgeoisie, he became, depending on ones point of view, either an overzealous bureaucrat or a secret agent who infiltrated the upper echelons of French state bureaucracy, spending the last twenty years of his life working in international diplomacy and high finance. Marco Filoni describes each facet of KojEves different lives in crystalline detail: the cultural circles of his youth, his studies, his philosophical passions, his fundamental theoretical choices, and his intellectual network, as well as the students who would become part of the intellectual elite, including Lacan, Bataille, and Merleau-Ponty. Drawing on rich archival material, unpublished texts, correspondence, and written and oral testimonies, The Life and Thought of Alexandre KojEve is a major benchmark for scholars of KojEve and of twentieth-century intellectual and political history. Filoni paints a vibrant portrait of one of the most influential intellectuals of the modern era, deftly composing KojEves personal, political, and philosophical lives. The Life and Thought of Alexandre Kojeve is a sweeping and multifaceted portrait of one of the twentieth century's most influential and intriguing figures.
