Your subtitle is ‘Essai sur l’Abjection’ – how would you translate that term into english?

It may be impossible. L’abjection is something that disgusts you, for example you see something rotting and want to vomit – it is an extremely strong feeling that is at once somatic and symbolic, which is above all a revolt against an external menace from which one wants to distance oneself. But of which one has the impression that it may menace us from the inside.
