    It is kind of intriguing that the word ‘speech’ is used in the title, I guess instead of ‘discourse’. Is not discourse what really ‘begins’ after death, or at least, that is only comprehensive with the death of god and the death of man? Sounds like the word ‘speech’ does not quite fit there at all.

      Yes, it’s a strange choice for a title. The French volume was ‘Le beau danger’, so not sure what the thinking is here. I guess it is a line from the interview, but am away at present so can’t check.
