Philippe Lacoue-Labarthe (born 1940) is a contemporary French philosopher and literary critic.

Summary

Influences and associations

Lacoue-Labarthe is influenced by and has written extensively on Martin Heidegger, Jacques Derrida, Jacques Lacan, German Romanticism, Paul Celan, and deconstruction. He is also a French translator for Heidegger, Celan, Freidrich Nietzsche, Freidrich Hölderlin, and Walter Benjamin. He collaborated extensively with Jean-Luc Nancy as editors, authors, and founders of the Centre for Philosophical Research in Philosophy. The two are possibly Derrida's most prominent students and together organized the first Cerisy conference dedicated to his work, Les fins de l'homme ("The Ends of Man"), in 1980. Both hold professorial appointments at the Université Marc Bloch in Strasbourg, France. He is a member of the International College of Philosophy.

Professional milestones

Lacoue-Labarthe received his docteur d'état in 1987 with a jury led by Gérard Granel and including Derrida and Jean-François Lyotard. The monograph submitted for that degree was La fiction du politique (English translation, Heidegger, Art, Politics), a study of Heidegger's long-abiding allegiances to his vision of National Socialism. It followed shortly after a book on Celan and Heidegger, Poetry as Experience. Both of these works immediately predate the explosion of interest in the political dimensions of Heidegger's thought and his personal responsibility as Rector of the University of Freiburg under the Nazi regime, an interest generated by Victor Farias's book that appeared in 1987. Scholars such as Derrida (in "Deconciliation," Shibboleth, and Of Spirit) , Lyotard (in Heidegger and "the jews"), and Pierre Joris (see ) have strongly commended these works as authoritative.
