This book challenges and inspires its readers, leaving them with a better understanding of one of contemporary philosophy's central figures, as well as a renewed appreciation for the infinity of philosophical enquiry. For anyone interested in the work of Jean-Luc Nancy or in contemporary philosophy more broadly, Sense and Singularity is an essential and transformative read.-- "Heythrop Journal" Sense and Singularity is a remarkable study of the complex and original thought of this provocative thinker. Each of its chapters is a model of careful reading deftly carried along by Van Den Abbeele's central argument that Nancy is a thinker of the interruption of philosophy at the limit of sense. There are few studies as comprehensive as this one, which reads Nancy's work from the earliest writings to the last publications. But above all Sense and Singularity makes compelling sense of the adventure of Nancy's thought at the limit of sense.-- "Peggy Kamuf, University of Southern California" Sense and Singularity is a scintillating, brilliant assessment of the end and ends of a great thinker and writer. Van Den Abbeele explicates patiently, meticulously and often with a novel take, Nancy's variegated writings.


The manuscript is a labor of love and a tour de force.-- "Verena Conley, Harvard University".
