This book features the full scope of Susan Petrilli's important
work on signs, language, communication, and of meaning,
interpretation, and understanding. Although readers are likely
familiar with otherness, interpretation, identity, embodiment,
ecological crisis, and ethical responsibility for the biosphere
Petrilli forges new paths where other theorists have not tread.
This work of remarkable depth takes up intensely debated topics,
exhibiting in their treatment of them what Petrilli admires
creativity and imagination. Petrilli presents a careful integration
of divergent thinkers and diverse perspectives. While she abandons
hope of attaining a final synthesis or an unqualifiedly
comprehensive outlook, there remains a drive for coherence and
detailed integration. The theory of identity being advocated in
this book will provide the reader with an aid to appreciating the
identity of the theorizing undertaken by Petrilli in her
confrontation with an array of topics. Her theory differentiates
itself from other offerings and, at the same time, is envisioned as
a process of self-differentiation. Petrilli's contribution is at
once historical and theoretical. It is historical in its recovery
of major figures of language; it is theoretical in its articulation
of a comprehensive framework. She expertly combines analytic
precision and moral passion, theoretical imagination and political
commitment.
