This book is the first edited collection to explore the role of
philosophy in the works of Cormac McCarthy, significantly expanding
the scope of philosophical inquiry into McCarthy's writings. There
is a strong and growing interest amongst philosophers in the
relevance of McCarthy's writings to key debates in contemporary
philosophy, for example, debates on trauma and violence, on the
relationship between language and world, and the place of the
subject within history, temporality, and borders. To this end, the
contributors to this collection focus on how McCarthy's writings
speak to various philosophical themes, including violence, war,
nature, history, materiality, and the environment. Emphasizing the
form of McCarthy's texts, the chapters attend to the myriad ways in
which his language effects a philosophy of its own, beyond the
thematic content of his narratives. Bringing together scholars in
contemporary philosophy and McCarthy Studies, and informed by the
release of the Cormac McCarthy Papers, the volume reflects on the
theoretical relationship between philosophical thinking and
literary form. This book will appeal to all scholars working in the
rapidly-growing field of McCarthy Studies, Philosophy and
Literature, and to philosophers working on a wide range of problems
in ethics, aesthetics, epistemology, Philosophy of Nature, and
Philosophy of Film across ancient, modern, and contemporary
philosophy.
