In Beckett and Poststructuralism, Anthony Uhlmann offers a reading
of Beckett in relation to French philosophy, particularly the work
of Foucault, Deleuze and Guattari, Levinas, and Derrida. Uhlmann
offers a work of literary criticism that is also a piece of
intellectual history, emphasizing how Beckett develops a kind of
critical thinking which differs from yet is just as powerful as
that of philosophers who, along with Beckett, found themselves
faced with sets of ethical problems which were thrown into sharp
relief in post-war France. Uhlmann explores the links between
ethics and physical existence in Beckett, Foucault and Deleuze and
Guattari, and between ethics and language in Beckett, Derrida and
Levinas, showing how post-war French philosophy was powerfully
affected by Beckett's work. Literature is not reduced to philosophy
or vice versa; rather Uhlmann considers how they interrelate and
overlap, informing and deforming one another, and how both
encounter history.
