Genealogies of the Text : Literature, Psychoanalysis, and Politics in Modern France

Omtale

This 1995 book confronts the series of enigmas surrounding the 'Blanchot affair', in which one of the leading figures of contemporary French thought was shown to have been a prominent fascist journalist during the 1930s. Using this as a point of departure, Mehlman investigates the ideological and political connotations of similar literary material.
