Klossowski: Um fantasma entre Nietzsche e Foucault?

Abstract

Abstract: After the assemblage of a fragmentary scenario, selecting certain expression of Klossowski’s thinking about Nietzsche and signaling a beginning of a reading with a double starting point (from personal experience and in the way of the Incipit), I intend to carry out an exercise of textual reading by making use of  an expression of Pierre Klossowski that was inscribed and masked by Foucault in his Theatrum Philosophicum. I carry forward this exercise of nominal characterization -- “another great and excessive sign” – by making some references to the role of sign, of excess, and of gesture. Our purport is that taking into consideration Foucault’s appropriation of this gestural sign—under the name of Klossowski —makes it possible to chart a phantasmagoric triad figure, pointing out, by the way, for a possible crossing, detour, and hindrance of a habitual relationship, simple and theoretical, between the thought of Nietzsche and that of Foucault.
