About this Blog
Helena Iara was born on April 22, 2010, and that night, to help her relax, I just began to free associate on the history of philosophy. It might seem that talking ontology with a baby would be a one-way conversation, but she responds, reacts... and her mere presence makes me think in different ways than I would talking with a child or an adult. This blog is an informal archive of these conversations, with the vague hope that as was true of Jacques Lacan or Giorgio Agamben, taking childhood and children seriously will make me a better thinker... and a better father.
