E o que acham os colegas de "L'être et l'événement" (1988), de Alain Badiou?


Da Wikipedia anglófona:

"His philosophy draws upon both 'analytical' and 'continental'
traditions. In Badiou's own opinion, this combination places him
awkwardly relative to his contemporaries, meaning that his work had
been only slowly taken up. Being and Event offers an example of this
slow uptake, in fact: it was translated into English only in 2005, a
full seventeen years after its French publication.

As is implied in the title of the book, two elements mark the thesis
of Being and Event: the place of ontology, or 'the science of being
qua being' (being in itself), and the place of the event – which is
seen as a rupture in being – through which the subject finds
realization and reconciliation with truth. This situation of being and
the rupture which characterizes the event are thought in terms of set
theory, and specifically Zermelo–Fraenkel set theory (with the axiom
of choice), to which Badiou accords a fundamental role in a manner
quite distinct from the majority of either mathematicians or
philosophers."

A tradução no Brasil saiu em 1996.
(Na época em que olhei para ela, no estande da editora numa ANPOF
longínqua, não entendi rigorosamente *nada*.  Mas me apressei a pôr a
culpa no tradutor e nos meus parcos conhecimentos de teoria de
conjuntos.)
