Notes
The question I raise here about the relation of imagination and image in Sallis’s work to the visual in phenomenologies of sense-perception is developed in a very thoughtful way in the sixth part of Walter Brogan’s review of Sallis’s Force of Imagination. See Brogan, “Of Philosophy at the Limit,” in the Journal of Speculative Philosophy (17:4, 2003), 293–302, esp. 301–302.
Sallis’s account of Hegel’s depiction of the three senses of “earth” in the Phenomenology is quite striking. One might only invite him to add to that account Hegel’s remarkable—and remarkably bizarre—account of sidereal earth in his lectures on the philosophy of nature. Earth is the sidereal presupposition of a spirit, a presupposition already as monstrous, however, as anything spirit will later produce.
