"Nietzsche's Case" combines the multiple perspectives of Bernd Magnus, a philosopher and Nietzsche scholar, Jean-Pierre Mileur, a critical theorist/Romanticist, and Stanley Stewart, a Renaissance literary scholar. Conceptually, it occupies the interface of philosophy and literature. Nietzsche's texts are brought into dialogue with the New Testament and texts by Sidney, Bacon, Spenser, Milton, Shakespeare, Browning, Coleridge, Wordsworth, Blake, Carlyle and Lawrence, as well as with the standard texts of the philosophical and critical traditions from Plato to Derrida. Nietzsche claimed that every great event constitutes "the personal confession of its author and a kind of involuntary and unconscious memoir". Magnus, Mileur and Stewart reveal the greatness of Nietzsche's philosophical achievement and at the same time unravel the unconscious and involuntary memoir it constitutes. "Nietzsche's Case" points beyond the philosopher's brief to the objects the brief interrogates - traditional religion, philosophy, and morality. It also examines the case Nietzsche himself is, interrogating the proper name "Nietzsche".

This is a stellar, courageous work of investigative journalism and historical scholarship grippingly told, meticulously documented, and doggedly pursued over thirty years. Tracking a Cold War confrontation that has compromised the national interests of both Mexico and the United States, Eclipse of the Assassins exposes deadly connections among historical events usually remembered as isolated episodes. Authors Russell and Sylvia Bartley shed new light on the U.S.-instigated dirty wars that ravaged all of Latin America in the 1960s, 70s, and 80s and reveal for the first time how Mexican officials colluded with Washington in its proxy contra war against the Sandinista government of Nicaragua. They draw together the strands of a clandestine web linking: the assassination of prominent Mexican journalist Manuel Buendia the torture and murder of U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration agent Enrique Camarena the Iran-Contra scandal a major DEA sting against key CIA-linked Bolivian, Panamanian, and Mexican drug traffickers CIA-orchestrated suppression of investigative journalists criminal collusion of successive U.S. and Mexican administrations that has resulted in the unprecedented power of drug kingpins like El Chapo Guzman. Eclipse of the Assassins places a major political crime the murder of Buendia in its full historical perspective and shows how the dirty wars of the past are still claiming victims today.

Literary Revisionism and the Burden of Modernity (Paperback): Jean-Pierre Mileur Literary Revisionism and the Burden of Modernity (Paperback)
Jean-Pierre Mileur

Literary Revisionism places Bloom, his ally Geoffrey Hartman, and their contemporary literary situation in a borad historical and theoretical context by exploring the provenance of the revisionist stance in the origins of the New Testament canon, in the works of the Sensibility Poets and the great Romantics, and in the emergence of our own secular modernity. The results is an uncanny sense of the wholeness of the tradition, ironically coupled with an awareness that we are cut off from the past by the very insistence with which we employ criticism to maintain the fiction of an isolate modernity. This title is part of UC Press's Voices Revived program, which commemorates University of California Press's mission to seek out and cultivate the brightest minds and give them voice, reach, and impact. Drawing on a backlist dating to 1893, Voices Revived makes high-quality, peer-reviewed scholarship accessible once again using print-on-demand technology. This title was originally published in 1985.
