Modern Philosophy Classics
In Germany, you can buy the classics of modern German philosophy for relatively minimal amounts of cash. Even the editions are desirable objects. In the UK, you have to hope for broken down secondhand editions. It�s rare for new paperbacks even to go for less than �15. So it�s good to see that Routledge has a new Classics imprint. Adorno, Derrida and Lacan are there, among others. And the paperbacks are a tenner. Not bad.
I�ve also seen the websiteless Athlone Press�s attractive red and white editions of more modern philosophy classics. These are �15 each however. With more Adorno and Derrida, you can find Deleuze, Bataille and the recently deceased Pierre Klossowski�s wonderfully-entitled work Nietzsche and the Vicious Circle. If I had an Amazon wish list this would be on it. Is it too late to get me a birthday present for tomorrow?
