Rereading Jean-François Lyotard (eBook, ePUB)

Essays on His Later Works
Redaktion: Shields, Rob

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

By focusing on key concepts and themes from his later texts, such as affect, aesthetics, Andre Malraux, St Paul, nihilism, infancy, space and writing, Rereading Jean-François Lyotard explores the impact and relevance of Lyotard's largely undiscussed late philosophical works for contemporary theoretical debates. Each chapter within this book places Lyotard as a figure with much to offer current theoretical debates, reasserts Lyotard as an important thinker for developments in social thought, and draws out the many links between his philosophical work and broader social questions.
