Intersubjectivity and the Double

More about the book

Exploring the concept of the double, this book delves into its role beyond traditional binary oppositions, presenting it as an essential ontological figure. Brian Seitz argues that the double serves as philosophy's shadow and nemesis while also enabling its possibilities. He expands its relevance across various fields, including politics, literature, and psychology, using case studies and phenomenological methods. The work highlights how different manifestations of the double are intertwined through intersubjective dynamics, offering a rich analysis of this complex theme.
