Tabish Khair

Literature Against Fundamentalism (eBook, PDF)

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

Tabish Khair makes the provocative argument that literature is an agnostic mode of thinking about language, reality, and their relationship to each other that can be an antidote to fundamentalism. The book concludes with an impassioned 'call to literature' as a means of remedying the current crisis in the humanities.
