Changes

Since the book’s first publication in 1988, [[Alain ]] Badiou’s ''[[Being ]] and [[Event]]'' has established itself of one of the most important and controversial works in contemporary [[philosophy ]] and its [[author ]] as one of the most influential thinkers of our [[time]]. ''Being and Event'' is a comprehensive [[statement ]] of Badiou’s [[philosophical ]] [[project ]] and sees him recast the European philosophical [[tradition ]] from [[Plato ]] onwards, via a series of [[analyses ]] of such key [[figures ]] as [[Descartes]], [[Spinoza]], Leibniz, [[Hegel]], Rousseau, and [[Lacan]]. He thus develops the basis for a [[history ]] of philosophy rivalling those of [[Heidegger ]] and [[Deleuze ]] in its depth.
