Description

The Emergence of Literature is an extension and reworking of a series of significant propositions in philosophy and literary theory: Jean-Luc Nancy and Philippe Lacoue-Labartheâ?Ts examination of the concept of the literary absolute; Martin Heideggerâ?Ts destruction and Giorgio Agambenâ?Ts archaeology of the metaphysics of will; Maurice Blanchotâ?Ts delimitation of the space of literature; and Michel Foucaultâ?Ts archaeology of literature. Its core contribution to the history of theory is to understand the literary absolute not simply as philosophical concept, but as a paradigm that delimits the horizon for currents of literary theory through the course of the 20th century where the literary criteria change from the theme of sincerity to the theme of the death of the author. Stretching from Kant to Hegel, from HAlderlin to the Early German Romantics, from John Stuart Mill to New Criticism, from Benjamin to Barthes, The Emergence of Literature examines the relation between continental philosophy and literature in the post-Kantian era.
