After Discourse is an interdisciplinary response to the recent
trend away from linguistic and textual approaches and towards
things and their affects. The new millennium brought about serious
changes to the intellectual landscape. Favoured approaches
associated with the linguistic and the textual turn lost some of
their currency, and were followed by a new curiosity and concern
for things and their natures. Gathering contributions from
archaeology, heritage studies, history, geography, literature and
philosophy, After Discourse offers a range of reflections on what
things are, how we become affected by them, and the ethical
concerns they give rise to. Through a varied constellation of case
studies, it explores ways of dealing with matters which fall
outside, become othered from, or simply cannot be grasped through
perspectives derived solely from language and discourse. After
Discourse provides challenging new perspectives for scholars and
students interested in other-than-textual encounters between people
and the objects with which we share the world.
