One of the most important French philosophers working today,
Francois Laruelle has developed an innovative and powerful
repertoire of concepts across an oeuvre spanning four decades and
more than twenty books. His work-termed non-philosophy or, more
recently, non-standard philosophy-has garnered international
attention in recent years and stands likely to have a significant
impact on the critical practices of the humanities in the near
future. Bringing together some of the most prominent scholars of
Laruelle, Superpositions: Laruelle and the Humanities explores the
intersections of Laruelle's work with multiple discourses within
the humanities, including philosophy, critical theory, political
theory, media studies, and religious studies. The book addresses
two main questions: In what relation does non-philosophical thought
stand with respect to the materials and methods of other
disciplines? How can Laruelle's non-standard philosophy be applied,
appropriated and used by other discourses? Superpositions provides
a useful introduction to Laruelle's work for students and scholars,
and marks an important intervention into one of the most vigorous
and contested areas of contemporary scholarship in the critical
humanities.
