Abstract:
In this essay, the author theorises edging as the spacing of an aesthesis and erotic sense of the common, distinct from any absolute finality, consummation, or end. This extends the work that the author did in the first two books where, in The Logic of the Lure, he focused on aesthetic and erotic logics of attraction, and in The Decision Between Us, on aesthetic, ethical, and equally erotic, logics of decision. The author focused on aestheticand ethical scenes of departure and abandonment, all the while not losingsight of the extent to which each of these ways, paths, gestures, and movements of attraction, encounter, and departure, are intimately operative inrelation to and with each other.
Keywords:
Erotic sense; logics of attraction; edging; ethical
