Philosophical Archaeology

With and Beyond Agamben on Philosophy, History, and Art.

Abstract

This review critically examines Govrin's work on Giorgio Agamben's philosophical archaeology, focusing on its historical and conceptual foundations. To this end, the aim is to engage with the dialogue established by Govrin throug key concepts in Agamben's thought: the relationship between act and potentiality, origin and arché, time and temporality. The review seeks to unveil how these concepts emerge and unfold, shedding light on their significance within Agamben's ohilosophical framework.
