Title first published in 2003. 'Weber is probably the only person
in his generation who is equally at home in and directly informed
about contemporary literary theory and its antecedents in Germany,
France, and the US. His theoretical interest in psychoanalysis
serves as a viewpoint from which a powerful combination of
philosophical, linguistic, and political concerns are brought
together in an uncommonly productive dialectical interplay' Paul de
Man This book presents the first introductory text examining the
work of the contemporary thinker, Samuel Weber. Accessible,
compelling and challenging, Weber's writing offers a rewarding
investigation into the connections between literary and cultural
studies, media and technology, and philosophy and aesthetics, in
the context of significant intellectual debates and developments
linking Europe and North America. The critical practice of Weber's
various texts is explored in detail, along with his studies in
philosophy, aesthetics, deconstruction, media, technology,
psychoanalysis and theatre.
