Traite des apparences
This third volume extends the critique of expressivity to the concept of appearance, art in general, politics and philosophy. The book begins with a prologue in which the author shows that the search-stemming from the Judaeo-Christian hermeneutic tradition-for a hidden and mysterious meaning of reality conflicts with the Greek view, according to which reality in itself already constitutes its own meaning. That is what the term "appearance" refers to. The first chapter raises the issue of critique of expressivity in art, taken as a means of communication as much as a dissimulation of meaning. The second chapter is a critique of politics and morality derived from the expressionist perspective. The last chapter delves into the philosophical forms which seem to be anchored in the concept of expression, and contrasts each form with an outline of the philosophy of appearances.
