French philosophy’s Hegel-Heidegger horizon was forged jointly by Koyré and Kojève
Evidence
It was in this manner formed and shaped, let us say it now, in a ‘plastic’ idiom, by giving to itself and receiving a form, the true form of genealogical crossing and on the basis of the French spiritualist tradition, of a Hegel and a Heidegger both reinterpreted together by these two great Russian immigrants. — Catherine Malabou, The Future of Hegel, 100
Categorization
- XREF: Connects to the reader’s ongoing thread on how a ‘field’ of interpretation gets constituted — the mutual construction of philosophical identity through shared reading alliances, parallel to mutual construction of friend/enemy. — connects to: Hegel’s temporalizing plasticity resists Heidegger’s charge of vulgar time — Catherine Malabou, The Future of Hegel: Plasticity,…, 1272
- QUESTION: This raises the aggregation question again: what structural conditions let Koyré and Kojève jointly shape a whole national field? Same mechanism-hunting shape as the plasticity/enemy question.
