Style in Theory Zusammenfassung

Style in Theory: Between Literature and Philosophy Professor Ivan Callus

'What, in theory, is style? How has style been rethought in literary theory?' Drawing together leading academics working within and across the disciplines of English, philosophy, literary theory, and comparative literature, Style in Theory: Between Philosophy and Literature sets out to rethink the important but all-too-often-overlooked issue of style, exploring in particular how the theoretical humanities open conceptual spaces that afford and encourage reflection on the nature of style, the ways in which style is experienced and how style allows disciplinary boundaries to be both drawn and transgressed. Offering incisive reflections on style from a diverse and contemporary range of theoretical and methodological perspectives, the essays contained in this volume critically revisit and challenge accepted accounts of style, and provide fresh and compelling readings of the relevance in any rethinking of style of specific works by the likes of Shakespeare, Petrarch, Kant, Nietzsche, Heidegger, Deleuze, Blanchot, Derrida, Nancy, Cixous and Meillassoux.

Style in Theory Bewertungen

Does style matter? It is a question that goes right to the heart of the traditionally fraught relationship between literature and philosophy. Style in Theory: Between Literature and Philosophy is an important and timely collection of essays that answers this question with an emphatic and compelling yes'. Offering an impressive range of profound and engaging reflections on the question of style in its various literary and philosophical manifestations, Style in Theory shows us why we ought to be thinking about style differently. -- Simon Critchley, Hans Jonas Professor of Philosophy, The New School, New York, USA
[T]he volume makes a valuable contribution to the study of style at the intersection of literature and philosophy. Summing Up: Recommended. Graduate students and researchers/faculty. -- P.I. Vieira, Georgetown University * CHOICE *
