Gillian Rose

Mourning Becomes the Law

Philosophy and Representation

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

In this book, Rose takes us beyond the impasse of post-modernism or 'despairing rationalism without reason'. Arguing that the post-modern search for a 'new ethics' and ironic philosophy are incoherent, she breathes new life into the debates concerning power and domination, transcendence and eternity.
