Jack Reynolds' insightful essays demonstrate the importance as well as
the difficulty of thinking across the metaphilosophical borders that
separate phenomenology, poststructuralism and analytic philosophy. They
develop a compelling case for the deficiencies of each, from the
perspective of the others, in relation to their respective approaches to
time and suggest ways in which each can learn from the others. This
book both calls for and exemplifies genuine conversation between
analytic and continental philosophy.—Paul Patton, author of Deleuzian
Concepts: Philosophy, Colonization, Politics and translator of Gilles
Deleuze's Difference and Repetition, Wuhan University and Flinders
University
In Chronopathologies, the Australian philosopher Jack
Reynolds gives an exciting analysis of the intimate connection between
time and politics in three trajectories of contemporary philosophy:
analytic philosophy, poststructuralism and phenomenology. Reynolds makes
an important contribution to the philosophical study of time. He
convincingly shows that the analytic and continental branches of
philosophy need each other to become aware of the temporal and normative
biases that bedevil them.—International Journal of Philosophical
Studies
Jack Reynolds has undertaken the monumental task of
defining philosophy as it stands today. Unlike any other book of which I
know, Reynolds has approached all the major strains of contemporary
philosophy with an even hand and a depth of insight, from analytic
philosophy to post-structuralism, to phenomenology. Reynolds shows us
that the primary philosophical problem remains that of time but now it
is time connected to ethics and politics. The value of Chronopathologies
cannot be underestimated.—Leonard Lawlor, Sparks Professor of
Philosophy, Penn State University
Reynolds is at the forefront of
a return: the rebirth of phenomenology after successive burials by
analytic philosophy, post-structuralism and naturalism. It returns,
critically and controversially, through a philosophy of time setting
lived time alongside contemporary scientific theories and ideas taken
from Derrida and Deleuze. Reynolds has made believable phantoms of
Heidegger, Levinas and, above all, Merleau-Ponty. It matters not whether
you wish to dispel them or make them flesh, his book is an essential
discussion of debates around time at the cross-over of different
philosophical traditions.—James Williams, University of Dundee
