    Le supermarché du visible: essai d'iconomie.Peter Szendy - 2017 - [Paris]: Les Éditions de Minuit.
    Ce qu'il s'agit d'analyser, d'ausculter, c'est ce que Walter Benjamin, en 1929 déjà, décrivait comme un espace chargé à cent pour cent d'images. Autrement dit : cette visibilité saturée qui nous arrive de partout, nous entoure et nous traverse aujourd'hui. Un tel espace iconique est le produit d'une histoire : celle de la mise en circulation et de la marchandisation générale des images et des vues. Il fallait ébaucher sa généalogie, depuis les premiers ascenseurs ou escalators (ces travellings avant la (...)

    Rumor, an Anarchimedium.Peter Szendy - 2023 - Paragraph 46 (2):145-159.
    Beyond the only text Jean-Luc Nancy explicitly dedicated to it (‘Rumoration’ in La Ville au loin), rumor lurks in the background — under the surface — of any discourse on community, or on being-with. Following closely Nancy’s thought process in ‘Rumoration’ (Nancy presents himself as walking, wandering in the city), this article interweaves fragments of a genealogy of rumor, from the ancient Greek logopoios to today’s ‘fake news’. But rumor is precisely what evades genealogy, so although it can be thought (...)

    The promise of photography: Scale, measure and proportion in a conflicted visual milieu.Andrew Fisher, Anke Hennig, Bernd Behr, Daniel Rubinstein, Martin Charvát, Peter Szendy & Tomáš Dvořák - 2021 - Philosophy of Photography 12 (1):27-69.
    This roundtable discussion is based on an online symposium – The Promise of Photography: Scale, Measure and Proportion in a Conflicted Visual Milieu – which took place on 17 September 2021. Since its inception, photography has promised to set things to scale, to grant them measure and proportion, a series of promises that have also entailed moments of irrationality or conflict that persist in and continue to shape the era of global networked digital imaging technologies. The symposium started out from (...)

  6. Antriloquía. Voces desviadas en la caverna.Laura Odello & Peter Szendy - 2005 - Logos. Anales Del Seminario de Metafísica [Universidad Complutense de Madrid, España] 8:35-46.
    The article addresses the role and being of the voice, and its relation with the echo in two contexts. We start with Plato’s cave myth and the dynamic between the interior and the exterior of the cave. Then we look at the relationship between the voice-echo and the exterior. The exterior is analyzed from a series of literary, musical, and cinematographic works. The constant and guiding line, how independent the voice is; its articulation with the speaking subject; its autonomous possibilities (...)

    All ears: the aesthetics of espionage.Peter Szendy - 2017 - New York, NY: Fordham University Press.
    An archeology of auditory surveillance combined with an analysis of representations of spying in works of literature, music, and film that provide philosophical reflections on the drives that animate listening: the drive for mastery and the death drive.

    Conspiring (Sympnea and Dyspnea).Peter Szendy - 2023 - Substance 52 (1):108-116.
    Conspiracy has probably become one of the key notions—or fantasies—of our times. Conspiracy, in the modern acceptation of the word, as in "conspiracy theory," has not only filled the mediasphere in which we live and breathe but it has also overshadowed—maybe we should say repressed—its ancient meaning. Surprisingly, this forgotten sense was revived on a poster lithographed by Andy Warhol in 1969 for a group exhibition in a Chicago gallery. The poster was meant to benefit the legal defense fund for (...)

    Iconomie et innervation.Peter Szendy - 2015 - Multitudes 3 (2):20-28.
    Iconomie est un mot-valise dans lequel on entend d’une part l’icône ( eikôn, c’était l’un des noms grecs pour l’image) et d’autre part l’économie, cette oikonomia qui désignait la bonne gestion des échanges. Mais l’iconomie dont il sera question ici s’inscrit dans ce que, après et d’après Marx, il faut bien décrire comme un supermarché esthétique, en y repérant ce que Walter Benjamin nous a aidé à concevoir comme une sensibilité innervée.

    L'écoute.Peter Szendy (ed.) - 2000 - Paris: Editions L'Harmattan.
    L'écoute de la musique : on la pratique, on en parle beaucoup ; on la pense peu dans ses enjeux ou dans son histoire. Or bien au-delà des question de genres ou de styles musicaux, l'écoute a connu, au XXè siècle, des mutations radicales. L'écoute est-elle donc inscrite dans les Œuvres musicales? Qui est celui qui écoute? Est-il un sujet à l'écoute? Et si oui, comment est-il sujet de ou à cette activité étrangement passive qui l'affecte?

    Narratives of Debt.Peter Szendy (ed.) - 2020 - Duke University Press.
    As the problem of debt grows more and more urgent in light of the central role it plays in neoliberal capitalism, scholars have analyzed debt using numerous approaches: historical analysis, legal arguments, psychoanalytic readings, claims for reparations in postcolonial debates, and more. Contributors to this special issue of _difference_s argue that these diverse approaches presuppose a fundamental connection between indebtedness and narrative. They see debt as a promise that refers to the future—deferred repayment that purports to make good on a (...)

    Phantom limbs: on musical bodies.Peter Szendy - 2016 - New York: Fordham University Press. Edited by Will Bishop.
    Music invents, constructs, quite simply makes the body, in sonorous spaces that resonate both within and between us. The disciplinary power of music was well known to the ancient Greeks and ancient Chinese. This disciplinary power holds simply for listeners, but of course is especially true for performers, for people who train their bodies in relation to the prostheses, the instruments, that make music possible. Both systematic and historical, this book is the first truly comprehensive critique of organology (the study (...)

    Pour une écologie des images.Peter Szendy - 2021 - [Paris]: Les Éditions de Minuit.
    Comment entendre le projet d'une écologie des images? Lorsque Susan Sontag l'ébauche pour la première fois à la fin de son ouvrage de 1977 sur la photographie, il résonne comme une exhortation à la vigilance face au débordement d'images qui menace d'engloutir notre capacité de voir. Plus récemment, derrière ce souci d'une économie de l'attention, une autre inquiétude a percé, concernant cette fois les retombées environnementales de la circulation et du stockage des images numériques. Cet essai tente d'explorer une troisième (...)
