Abstract
AbstractIn a cosmos‐wide philosophical text, professor of literature and cinema Akira Mizuta Lippit introduces the contradictory ontology of the penumbra – it is all and nothing, void and mass, light and dark, there and not there. Here he uses these dualities to examine the transparency of language, the naming of things, babbling, Babel and the nature of the Word.
