The Agamben Dictionary Paperback - 2011
by Alex Murray (Editor); Jessica Whyte (Editor)
From the rear cover
This is not yet another dictionary listing keywords so as to provide quick access to a philosopher's work. Rather it is a dictionary that justifies its form by referring to Giorgio Agamben's own idea of language.
Alexander Garc�a D�ttmann, Goldsmiths, University of London.
The first dictionary dedicated to the work of Giorgio Agamben
In recent years Agamben's work has gained prominence for its incisive critique of the Western political tradition. Yet this has often resulted in a selective reading of his broad body of work, rather than one that addresses it as a complex whole. The Agamben Dictionary has brought together leading and emerging scholars from across the world to provide this essential overview of his work.
Key features
- includes comprehensive definitions with clear guides as to where concepts can be found across Agamben's body of work
- fully cross-referenced throughout
- extensive list of secondary reading
Alex Murray is a lecturer in English at the University of Exeter and has published widely in literary studies and critical theory. Jessica Whyte completed a doctoral thesis on the political thought of Giorgio Agamben at Monash University in 2010.
