Have I been abbreviating “favorite phrase of the week” FPTOW all this time? Obviously, it should be FPOTW. Yet another sign that grad school has made me [more] insane.

FPOTW

leave a comment »

From Badiou’s Theory of the Subject:

The One One is that One which, from having emerged as subject under the law of repulsion-attraction, establishes itself at the crossing point between an algebraic constraint–which makes it One One–and a topological, attractive, coagulating consistency–which makes it One One.

[…]

Any material subject, One for the One One, and One One according to the Ones, articulates the algebra of its placement and the topology of its novelty (213-4).
