This authoritative guide introduces the key figures in contemporary
critical theory for the beginning student. The critical theory
covered in the volume includes: semiotics and discourse analysis;
structuralism and post-structuralism; ideology critique;
deconstruction; feminism; queer theory; psychoanalysis;
postcolonialism; postmodernism; and the descendents of Frankfurt
School Critical Theory. There are individual chapters on: Lacan;
Althusser; Barthes; Derrida; Levinas; Kristeva; Irigaray; Cixous;
Foucault; Lyotard; Deleuze; Baudrillard; and Guattari; Bourdieu;
Habermas; Jameson; and Said. Each chapter provides biographical
information and details about the thinker's intellectual context,
an explanation of key concepts, an outline of the major angles of
the theorist's work, an indication of ways in which their theory
has been applied and suggestions for further reading. This text is
designed as a companion to "From Kant to Levi-Strauss: The
Background to Contemporary Critical Theory", which is also edited
by Jon Simons and published by Edinburgh University Press.
