Roger V. Bell

Sounding the Abyss

Readings Between Cavell and Derrida

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Sounding the Abyss achieves an analysis that extends Cavell's already rich range of work into surprising new directions in postcolonialism, multiculturalism, and general cultural criticism. The work never strays from its concern with reassessing the divide between philosophy's analytic and Continental factions.
