OverviewThe 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.
