The Theory of Love: Ideals, Limits, Futures explores stories about
love that recuperate a vision of intimate life as a resource for
creating bonds beyond heterosexual coupledom. This book offers a
variety of ethical frames through which to understand changing
definitions of love, intimacy, and interdependency in the context
of struggles for marriage equality and the increasing recognition
of post-nuclear forms of kinship and care. It commits to these
post-nuclear arrangements, while pushing beyond the false choice
between a politics of collective action and the celebration of
deeply personal and incommunicable pleasures. In exploring the
vicissitudes of love across contemporary philosophy, politics,
film, new media, and literature, The Theory of Love: Ideals,
Limits, Futures develops an original post-sentimental concept of
love as a way to explain emergent intimacies and affiliations
beyond the binary couple. This book will appeal to academics and
postgraduate students across the humanities and social sciences, as
well as being a teachable resource for undergraduate students. It
will appeal to a wide range of academics and students in literary
and film studies, philosophy, gender and sexuality studies, and
critical and cultural studies.
