Beyond difference

Calum Neill

pp. 168-190

Abstract

Infinite alterity is quite simply what there is. Any experience at all is the infinite deployment of infinite differences. Even the apparently self-reflexive experience of myself is by no means the intuition of a unity but a labyrinth of differentiations, and Rimbaud was certainly not wrong when he said: ‘I am another.’
