Summaries and Reviews
Amazon.com description: Product Description:
Since the late 1960s, when he introduced Theodor Adornoâs work on literature and cultural critique to an English-speaking public, Samuel Weber has stimulated the discovery of new and unexpected links within a broad spectrum of humanistic disciplines, including critical theory and psychoanalysis, media studies and literary analysis, continental philosophy and theater studies. The international group of scholars who contribute to Points of Departure demonstrate the persistent fecundity of Weberâs work. Centered around his essay on the Ghost of Hamlet, as reflected in the writings of Walter Benjamin and Carl Schmitt, the volume is broadly divided into explorations of the nature of spectrality, on the one hand, and the dynamics of reading, on the other. Each of the twelve essays thus takes its point of departure from âWeberâs singular path between languages, cultures, and traditionsââto quote Jacques Derrida, whose fictive âinterview with a passing journalistâ is published here for the first time.
