This volume brings together some of the leading thinkers and theorists about the death-drive as a psychological, aesthetic, and theoretical principle in literary and cultural theory, examining texts by writers such as Plato, Henry James, and Ezra Pound.Hinweis: Dieser Artikel kann nur an eine deutsche Lieferadresse ausgeliefert werden.
