Abstract
Evangelou reiterates the specific connection that the book seeks to explore, namely madness in relation to philosophy which is also autobiographical. He further traces the book’s key themes through his reading of Nietzsche, Bataille, Foucault and Derrida in order to shed some more light on the practise and the implications of philosophizing madness after Nietzsche.
