Rezensionen

The Black Circle is an extraordinary study, in which hardcore philosophical issues are approached at a cosmic level but lyrically, almost as part of an intimate conversation. Alexandre Kojève was so thoroughly at home in German and French culture that his origins in yet a third culture have been neglected. In this book, Jeff Love restores Russian contexts to Kojève's thought on Hegel and the end of history.' Caryl Emerson, Princeton University
