«‘Andrew Benjamin asks me for a short – very short – foreword for this Lyotard Reader, nothing much, only four or five pages. Just like that , quite casually. As though it was the most natural thing in the world. But there's nothing natural at all about this Lyotard Reader, or about the idea that Lyotard himself should write a foreword for the Reader. You say foreword. Let him say a word before you read his words. A key word that gives the Reader, a key to the words in the Reader ...' Jean- Reader Francois Lyotard from the foreword»

The Lyotard Reader is a collection of Jean-Francois Lyotard's most important and significant papers to date. While they are all written from within philosophy, they seek to address subjects as wide-ranging as film, painting (Adami, Francken, Newman), psychoanalysis, Judaism and politics. The originality of Lyotard's work means that it can not be readily situated within any one philosophical tradition. Instead he returns philosophy itself to debates across a range of areas and, in so doing, redefines the philosophical enterprise.
A number of chapters in The Lyotard Reader appear for the first time in English. This is the most comprehensive collection available of Lyotard's work, work has profoundly influenced debates on the Enlightenment, on modernity, on postmodernity, on the transmission f information, on literary theory and on philosophy.
