Giorgio Agamben has gained widespread popularity in recent years
for his rethinking of radical politics and his approach to
metaphysics and language. However, the extraordinary breadth of
historical, legal and philosophical sources which contribute to the
complexity and depth of Agamben's thinking can also make his work
intimidating. Covering the full range of Agamben's work, this
critical introduction outlines Agamben's key concerns: metaphysics,
language and potentiality, aesthetics and poetics, sovereignty, law
and biopolitics, ethics and testimony, and his powerful vision of
post-historical humanity. Highlighting the novelty of Agamben's
approach while also situating it in relation to the work of other
continental thinkers, "The Philosophy of Agamben" presents a clear
and engaging introduction to the work of this original and
influential thinker.
