Agamben and the Existentialists


Add your own review!

Overview

The Italian political philosopher Giorgio Agamben is not usually seen as an existentialist philosopher. But now, this volume shows how his work creatively repackages important existentialist themes in a politico-theological context. Divided into three sections 'Agamben and the Sovereign Exception', 'Agamben and the Death of God' and 'Existentialist Themes in Agamben' this collection challenges, complicates and reimagines Agamben's critique of the sovereign exception and other existentialist themes including feminism and postcolonialism.

Reviews

Consistently challenging, informative, and enlightening, the essays in this volume make a major contribution in situating Agamben's thought in relation to existentialist thinkers and themes. They provide a bright new lens through which to view Agamben's work. --Kevin Attell, Cornell University
