Paul Colilli

Agamben and the Signature of Astrology

Spheres of Potentiality

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book examines how astrology appears in the works of Giorgio Agamben as a means to visualize the significance of the central elements in his thinking on issues such as potentiality, biopolitics, and the signature. The astrological signature becomes an alternative mode to theology, politics, and philosophy as a way of understanding history.
