Abstract
This essay examines Kofman’s reading of Socrates in Plato, and her portraits of Hegel’s, Kierkegaard’s, and Nietzsche’s readings of the same. In each, there is a moment of constitutive excess that simultaneously figures a lack. From that lack emerges a recuperative and reparative successor reading, until we arrive back at Kofman herself, a return to the original and a new articulation, a moment of return that is a displacement.
