Summaries and Reviews
Amazon.com description: Product Description: Since the publication of Homo Sacer in 1995, Giorgio Agamben has become one of the worldâs most revered and controversial thinkers. His ideas on our current political situation have found supporters and enemies in almost equal measure. His wider thoughts on topics such as language, potentiality, life, law, messianism and aesthetics have had significant impact on such diverse fields as philosophy, law, theology, history, sociology, cultural studies and literary studies.
Yet although Agamben is much read, his work has also often been misunderstood. This book is the first to fully take into account Agambenâs important recent publications, which clarify his method, complete his ideas on power, and finally reveal the role of language in his overall system. William Watkin presents a critical overview of Agambenâs work that, through the lens of indifference, aims to give a portrait of exactly why this thinker of indifferent and suspensive legal, political, ontological and living states can rightfully be considered one of the most important philosophers in the world today.
