Well-researched and argued, it proposes nothing less than a principle of motion/transition that operates prior to the object/subject-or phenomena/noumena-split... There are many highly original parts... For myself, however, the excursus is the most exciting and compelling part of this work. I am very taken with the image of the spiral, and, indeed, with the reading of Van Gogh's Starry Night... Indeed, there are parts here that are beautifully written, poetic, and grand. -- Simon O'Sullivan, PhD, senior lecturer, Department of Visual Cultures, University of London's Goldsmiths College Author InformationErman Kaplama is currently lecturing in philosophy, ethics, and governance at the University of the South Pacific.
