Sarah Kofman and her intimate Ecce Homo
Abstract
This article explains a crucial detail about the French thinker Sarah Kofman, namely, how her last book Rue Ordener, Rue Labat is not merely a biographical text that foretells her imminent suicide a few months after it was written, but rather expresses the deepest aspects of her thought and life. To understand this, Nietzsche's Ecce Homo is proposed as the interpretative horizon, because it is in the light of Nietzsche's last book that we can comprehend Kofman’s writing style in her book, and within this, see that her work revolves around the eternal return, that is a nuance of the subtle that points to the life-death that is constitutive of both the human and reality itself.
