Kantian Cosmology: The Very IdeaKant Studies Online 1--26. 2011.The general conception of Kantian cosmology in Universal Natural History is one that folds into the âpre-Criticalâ period in the basic sense that the status of the types of principles invoked within the work is not subjected by Kant to critical assessment. This is far from meaning that the enquiry of Universal Natural History is simply abandoned by Kant. Rather, the stakes of the inquiry into cosmology become transformed and this transformation has much to do with the results of the Critique…Read more

59Touching the Opening of the WorldDerrida Today 6 (1): 58-77. 2013.In this article I seek to address the way that Jean-Luc Nancy's project of the ‘deconstruction of Christianity’ relates to the understanding of what might be meant by ‘Christian art’. In the process of looking at Nancy's treatment of some signal ‘Christian’ scenes I describe some ways in which the motif of ‘touching’ arises as significant for how Nancy addresses the possibility of ‘alienation from the world’, a possibility that he takes to be central to the self-deconstructive potential of ‘Chri…Read more

12Introduction: cosmopolitics and modernityIn Diane Morgan & Gary Banham (eds.), Cosmopolitics and the Emergence of a Future, Palgrave-macmillan. 2007.This introduction suggests a set of connections between the understanding of modernity and the opening up of a new understanding of politics as cosmopolitics. It argues that the modern understanding of the political has suffered a set of displacements both in regard to understanding cosmology and in the place of the human in relation to technology.

41Preface The ‘Deconstruction of Christianity’: A Special IssueDerrida Today 6 (1): 1-10. 2013.The theme of the ‘deconstruction of Christianity’, which was selected for this special issue of Derrida Today, is one that arises not from the work of Derrida himself in the first instance but instead from that of Jean-L Nancy. Not only is this so but Derrida's ([2000] 2005) own view of the notion of the ‘deconstruction of Christianity’ seems, on the evidence available, to be at least open to quite a bit of interpretation given the ambiguous nature of some of his comments on the question. Given …Read more

27Kant and the ends of aestheticsSt. Martin's Press. 2000.This is a book focused primarily on reading the *Critique of Judgment* but which takes the central topics of it to be central to understanding the Critical Philosophy generally.

93Mapplethorpe, Duchamp and the Ends of PhotographyAngelaki 7 (1): 119-128. 2002.This paper presents an argument for seeing Marcel Duchamp and Robert Mapplethorpe as opposite ends of a tradition of negotiation of art with its conditions of production. The piece takes seriously Kant's suggestions concerning the fine arts and contests views of art that see the Kantian tradition as formally fixed.
