- Summary:
- What is theory doing in America? Does high French theory continue to be a significant force in American intellectual life? This volume of new work -- by such French figures as Julia Kristeva, Jacques Derrida, Gerard Genette, and Jean Baudrillard, as well as such American critics as Gayatri Spivak, Sylvere Lotringer, Mario Biagioli, Avital Ronell, and Richard Sennett -- present both discussions of this question and demonstrations of what French theory looks like today, thirty years after its first appearance.
