About Planktos Press
Planktos Press publications regularly explore the idea that what we call our “own” thoughts, actions, and identity, actually do not originate with, nor occur because of, ourselves individually.
Planktos Press participates in philosophical traditions that counter the supposed divisions of presence versus absence (structuralism), and real versus representation (phenomenology).
Within these themes, Planktos Press also publishes original translations into English of select French language philosophical works.
