Description
In this volume, Fenves expands the context of Jacques Derrida's work on voice and tonality by presenting English translations of two of Kant's important late essays, "On a Newly Arisen Superior Tone in Philosophy" and "Announcement of a Near Conclusion of a Treaty for Eternal Peace in Philosophy". The book also includes a revised translation, by John Leavey, of Derrida's "On a Newly Arisen Apocalyptic Tone in Philosophy" which rewrites and reorients Kant's essays. Observing that Derrida continues the speculation Kant begins, Fenves proposes that these essays reveal tonality and the "end" of philosophy to be perennial compulsions.
