Metaphilosophy

Leading French thinker with his key work on philosophical thought

In Metaphilosophy, Henri Lefebvre works through the implications of Marxâ€™s revolutionary thought to consider philosophyâ€™s engagement with the world. Lefebvre takes Marxâ€™s notion of the â€œworld becoming philosophical and philosophy becoming worldlyâ€ as a leitmotif, examining the relation between Hegelianâ€“Marxist supersession and Nietzschean overcoming. Metaphilosophy is conceived of as a transformation of philosophy, developing it into a programme of radical worldwide change. The book demonstrates Lefebvreâ€™s threefold debt to Hegel, Marx and Nietzsche, but it also brings a number of other figures into the conversation, including Sartre, Heidegger and Axelos. A key text in Lefebvreâ€™s oeuvre, Metaphilosophy is also a milestone in contemporary thinking about philosophyâ€™s relation to the world.
