YALE FRENCH STUDIES, 99 Jean-François Lyotard: Time and Judgment Edited by Robert Harvey and Lawrence R. Schehr ISBN 0-300-08991-0 The work of the polymath Jean-François Lyotard has proven seminal in the best sense of the word: original and historical, both fundamental and far-reaching, neither partisan nor exclusive.
