Prolégomènes à la Bretagne. Anti-politique du navigateur solitaire

Abstract

This text establishes Brittany less as a topic than as a vanishing point; it unfolds the anti-philosophical chicanes of a rebellion against the world by means of solitary sailing. Brittany, at first a mere subjectified setting – the landscape of the soul that provides rebellion with further circumscription, finitude being the organon of the infinite – becomes one of its essential features: it serves as the constant in the rebellion formula. Taking the place into account, anti-philosophy acquires here an anti-political entrenchment which, in returning, restores the radicality of Brittany.
