Athena Athanasiou

Broschiertes Buch

Agonistic Mourning

Political Dissidence and the Women in Black

Beschreibung

Athena Athanasiou departs from recent discussions of mourning, including in the work of Judith Butler, by raising an altogether original question which both challenges and extends the current orthodoxy: what would it be like to mourn the dead of the enemy?
