- Summary:
- "The addiction of devotion to proper names is a perennial problem and it will be going nowhere. Against Heidegger is a collection of poetic meditations on that precise and, possibly, eternal addiction. LM Rivera continues his idiosyncratically lyric argumentation against grounded, so-called straight forward, naive, sentimental, easy narratives-opting instead for improvised, collaged, bursting, experimental formations of thinking through a concept to its (im)possible end. The grand philosopher, Martin Heidegger, acts as guide and whipping boy (and well deserved), as the author of this collection attempts to sever many troubled but lasting attachments to myriad traditions-be they overt, canonical, hidden, esoteric, forbidden, or downright disgraceful"-- Provided by publisher.
