I thank all the editors involved, and especially my helpful colleagues Victor Wallis and Colin MacCabe, for their friendly permission to use these, often more or less changed, texts in this book. My thanks also go to W. F. Haug for the insights arising from the discussions of various Inkrit annual meetings and through the process of German translation for some of them in Das Argument, and to Srećko Horvat for those arising out of Croatian translations of Essays 8 and 9 in Up & Underground (Zagreb). I also owe a great debt of gratitude to many people with whom various drafts were discussed throught the years, the most directly concerned of whom are mentioned in notes to the essays.
