| Opplysninger | Oversatt av David Broder. - Paolo Virno teaches Philosophy at the University of Rome.. - Déjá vu, which doubles and confuses our experience of time, is a psychological phenomenon with peculiar relevance to our contemporary historical circumstances. From the starting point, the acclaimed Italian philosopher Paolo Virno examines the construct of memory, the passage of time, and the "end of history". Through thinkers such as Bergson, Kojéve and Nietzsche, Virno shows how our perception of history can become suspended or paralysed, making the distinction between "before" and "after", cause of effect, seem derisory. In examining the way of the experience of time becomes historicak, Virno forms a radical new theory of historical temporality.
