Kostas Axelos traces his thinking on the world deployed as play from Heraclitus through to the culmination of metaphysical philosophy with Nietzsche, Marx and Heidegger.
Originally published in 1969, Le Jeu du Monde, conceives of the dawn of the 21st-century in which technological transformations coincide with an increased world at play. Are we continually falling when we are continually scrolling? Are we homeless on our homepages and playless at our PlayStations? Axelos demands a future thinking of fragmentary wholeness where humans – global players and worldwide gamers of planetary and wordless worlds – have yet to learn to play the play of the world.
Kostas Axelos (1924–2010) was a Greek-French philosopher and translator. A specialist in Heraclitus, Karl Marx and Martin Heidegger, as well as in Friedrich Hölderlin and Stéphane Mallarmé, he taught and researched at the Sorbonne, as well as at the Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique and at the École Pratique des Hautes Études. The Game of the World is his magnum opus, and as yet only the third English translation from his vast and important body of work. Justin Clemens is Associate Professor in Culture and Communication at the University of Melbourne. He has published extensively on psychoanalysis, contemporary European philosophy and Australian art and literature. His recent books include What is Education? edited with A.J. Bartlett and The Afterlives of Georges Perec edited with Rowan Wilken. Hellmut Monz teaches at the School of Communication and Design at RMIT University, Vietnam. He made his literary debut with the hexalogy Hellmut Monz and Philosophia's Scream
