Reviews for Philippe Lacoue-Labarthe: Representation and the Loss of the Subject
"Philippe Lacoue-Labarthe is the most subtle philosopher of the human subject writing in any language, and John Martis is the clearest and most faithful interpreter of Lacoue-Labarthe on the crucial interaction of representation and the human subject. His book raises discussion of human selfhood to a new level of sophistication."
