The Erotic Phenomenon by Jean-Luc Marion
While humanists have pondered the subject of love to the point of obsessiveness, philosophers have steadfastly ignored it. This book offers an inquiry into the concept of love itself.
"Marion is doing the most interesting work in phenomenology today... This is not a book about other books about love. It is patiently and carefully attentive to 'the things themselves,' and reads as an analysis that is at once rigorous and lyrical - attuned to both the concept and the caress." - Choice"
