The Lyotard Dictionary provides an exceptionally clear presentation of his complex and challenging ideas. The entries are written with precision, detail and clarity, offering helpful introductions to unfamiliar concepts as well as fascinating insights for those who already know Lyotard's work. It will be an indispensable guide for students of Lyotard at all levels. Simon Malpas lectures in English at Edinburgh University The first dictionary dedicated to the work of Jean-François Lyotard Jean-François Lyotard is famed for being one of the most acute observers on the cultural phenomenon of the postmodern, and his ideas resonate throughout the academic world, from philosophy and the social sciences through to literary, media, and cultural studies. Drawing on the internationally-recognised expertise of a multidisciplinary team of contributors, the entries in The Lyotard Dictionary explain all of Lyotard's main concepts, contextualising these within his work as a whole and relating him to his contemporaries. It forms an indispensable guide to this fascinating and hugely influential thinker, demonstrating his continuing significance as a cultural theorist. Stuart Sim is Visiting Professor in the Department of English and Creative Writing at Northumbria University. He is widely published in the field of critical theory, and his works on Lyotard include Jean-François Lyotard (1996), and Lyotard & the Inhuman (2001).
