"The Circumscription of Contemporary Western Writing Thought" and Its Significance: Review of Contemporary Western Writing Thought by Professor Qi Wang

Abstract

The book Comprehensive Review of Contemporary Western Writing Theories Centering on Jean-Luc Nancy examines Jean-Luc Nancy's ideas on writing within the context of Western cultural thought. It delves deeply into the theoretical origins and philosophical foundations of his thought, focusing on the theoretical connotations, characteristics, and artistic forms of "writing", while fully exploring the academic value of Nancy's writing philosophy. Rather than merely tracing the modern history of writing thought, the book places it within the academic history of writing, exploring the connotation of writing from ancient Greece to the postmodern era. It reveals the trend of writing evolving "from hidden to apparent" and connects writing with sense, the body, art, and literature, centering on "writing." The author, through this survey of writing, presents a comprehensive and multidimensional view of contemporary Western writing and opens up to the infinite possibilities of writing and sense.
