The purpose of art, according to the artist Banksy, is to comfort
the disturbed and disturb the comfortable. The purpose of that
creative practice called "theory" is to disturb everyone-to
perpetually unsettle all our staid assumptions, all our fixed
understandings, all our familiar identities. An alternative to the
typically large and unwieldy theory anthology, Adventures in Theory
offers a manageably short collection of writings that have famously
enacted the central purpose of theory. Adventures in Theory takes
readers on a steadily unsettling tour, spanning the most
significant thought provocations in the history of theoretical
writing from Marx and Nietzsche through Foucault and Derrida to
Butler, Zizek, and Edelman. Engagingly lean and enjoyably mean,
this is a minimalist anthology with maximal impact.
