Analyses the role of music in the work of Nancy, Lacoue-Labarthe and Badiou, and the role of gender in the history of philosophy of music.
What counts as music for contemporary thinkers? Why is music of use to philosophers and how do they use it in their work? How do philosophers decide what music is and what assumptions are uncritically inherited in this move?To answer these questions, Sarah Hickmott looks at the way music is used, characterised and understood in the work of Jean-Luc Nancy, Philippe Lacoue-Labarthe and Alain Badiou. Despite the differences in their philosophical-theoretical positions, all of these writers invoke music both directly and indirectly to negotiate their relationship to ontology, politics, ethics and aesthetics.Given a longer philosophical history that dates back at least to Plato - of aligning music with the feminine, she also focuses on the way gender is deployed, understood and constructed within the philosophy of music.
