Summary:
This collection of interviews and creative criticism presents Christopher Morris's vigorous polemics with Haydeo White, Michel Foucault, Jean Baudrillard, Jean-François Lyotardi Thomas Kuhn, Emmanuel Levinas, Pierre Bourdieu, Richard Rorty, and Stanley Fish. Alongside his uncompromising critiques emerge passages of committed close and careful reading of Jacques Derrida's texts, as he cites and reiterates Derrida's philosophical contexts in the works of Immanuel Kant, Gaston Bachelard, and Georges Canguilhem, as well as in the fields of epistemology and philosophy of science. The book also offers a coda of "essays" on Frank Kermode, Terry Eagleton, and Terence Hawkes. This collection, prefaced with Norris's own academic memoir, not only provides an accessible and provocative introduction to Morris's critical thought, but also highlights the wide range of his interests and philosophical engagements.
