{"product_id":"9780792328339","title":"Negation, Critical Theory, and Postmodern Textuality","description":"\u003ch1\u003eNegation, Critical Theory, and Postmodern Textuality\u003c\/h1\u003e \u003ch2\u003eFischlin, D.\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eNegation, Critical Theory, and Postmodern Textuality\u003c\/em\u003e  features 14 new essays by leading specialists in critical theory,  comparative literature, philosophy, and English literature. The  essays, which present wide-ranging historical considerations of  negation in light of recent developments in poststructuralism and  postmodernism, range over many of the siginificant texts in which  negation figures prominently. The book includes a wide-ranging  introductory chapter that examines how attention to negation -- the  inescapable nescience that is posited in any and every linguistic  expression -- enhances the hermeneutic possibilities present in  language. In addition, the four sections of the book bring together  major critical interventions on, among others, negative meaning,  unrecognizability, elenctic negation, apocalypse, nihilism, negation  and gender, and denegation. All the essays involve close attention to  key texts by major authors, including William Shakespeare, Henry  James, Federico García Lorca, Samuel Beckett, Thomas Bernhard,  Walt Whitman, E.M. Forster, Mary Shelley, Margaret Atwood, Roland  Barthes, Douglas Barbour, Paul de Man, bp Nichol, Jacques Derrida, and  Dogen Kigen. The volume opens up new areas in critical theory,  comparative literature, and the philosophy of language, and defines a  major new area of inquiry in relation to notions of postmodern  textuality. Critical theorists, students of comparative literature,  English literature, and the history of ideas, and those interested in  the hermeneutic implications of postmodernism will find this volume of  substantial interest. Its extensive bibliographical apparatus and  index make the collection a valuable reference tool for upper-level  undergraduate and graduate students as well as for those seeking a  variety of interpretive approaches to the problem of negation in  literature. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 1994-05-31\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9780792328339\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-94-015-8291-9\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 332\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer Netherlands","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46312512356492,"sku":"9780792328339","price":152.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9780792328339.jpg?v=1771525693","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9780792328339","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
