Abstract

In this version of a talk at the Norman O. Brown conference, Jay Cantor traces the path from Life Against Death into and through Love's Body to outline the liberatory impulse that animated Brown's entire opus. The anti-identitarian character of this liberation found Brown turning on his earlier work—Love's Body was a torpedo aimed at Life Against Death—but never relinquishing his deep commitment, made in full cognizance of the psychic, historical, and political inducements to despair, to new poetics, new politics, and new corporeality.
