This book unearths Carter's deconstruction of the male-dominated
discipline of Western thought. Revealing the extensive
philosophical research that underpins Carter's intertextual work,
this book offers new readings of her fiction in relation to a range
of philosophical texts and ideas. By re-examining Carter's writing
with reference to the archived collection of her notes that has
recently become available at the British Library, Angela Carter and
Western Philosophy puts forward new interpretations of Carter's
writing practices. With chapters examining her allusions to Plato,
Hobbes and Rousseau, Descartes, Locke and Hume, Wittgenstein and
Ryle, as well as Kant and Sade, this book illuminates Carter's
engagement with different areas of Western thought, and discusses
how this shapes her portrayal of reality, identity, civilisation,
and morality. Angela Carter and Western Philosophy will be of
interest to researchers, lecturers, and students working on
contemporary women's writing, philosophy and literature, and
intertextual literary practices.
