   You got it, I've been sucked into the signifying chain. Been working my way through L's seminars for the last couple of years, just starting Seminar XI. Was a big L sceptic, now regard him as indispensable.

   So much that is good in the French trad. comes from him, it's amazing, whether in Foucault, Althusser, Deleuze, whoever. I now realise that L may have had a more important influence on conty thought even than Levi-Strauss or Sartre.

   Btw, with your studies in religion, you absolutely have to check out the middle section of Seminar VII, called The Paradox of Jouissance. You'll be perplexed, of course, but you should plough on through that section regardless (trust me). http://www.mediafire.com/file/4injkucd8xnkb7z/19590101+Lacan+Sem+VII+Ethics.pdf Your friend Kant features heavily.

   but this weekend i had a Hieddeger comeback where i realized that i havent understood him at all. some friend told me that what makes Being and Time such a wonderful piece is exactly that, that everytime time you comeback to it its like you never read it before.
   cheers on the material.

   Nice. I'm guilty when it comes to Heidegger. We all have gaps in our reading, and my most embarrassing gaps are probably Being and Time and Summa Theologica. I'm making a a serious study of Kant this year (about to start the third critique), but definitely going to read B&T this winter. Can't understand Deleuze without understanding Alquié without understanding Heidegger, I realise.

   I've found the English-speaking tradition of Kant scholarship - Guyer, Allison, Strawson - very disappointing so far. Will move on to Dieter Henrich after the CPJ, which will hopefully be better. Do you have any recommendations, re. Kant and/or Heidegger?

   Derrida argues with heidegger during his entire life. he is first and foremost a critic of linguistic so instead of using the pasticity of words to renew what reality or truth is, he is into questioning this idea.

    and then there is this:

    sublime as well, it gives you a completely new perspective on the matter of heidegger and the role of the Dasein on politics.

    Excellent, thanks MaraDon. I know the Foucault, read it a few years ago; but that was before I'd read Kant's CPR, so I should give it another go. Don't know either the Derrida or Bourdieu, so I've dl'd them into a brand new desktop Heidegger folder. Just skimmed the Bourdieu and it looks perfect, with lots of engagement with the 'full cast' of philosophy. That should help me orient myself re. Heidegger. Cheers amigo.
