Books by Stanley (Harvard University) Cavell

In these three lectures, Cavell situates Emerson at an intersection of three crossroads: a place where both philosophy and literature pass; where the two traditions of English and German philosophy shun one another; where the cultures of America and Europe unsettle one another.

* Addresses European and Anglo--American philosophical traditions -- which is a growth area* Deals with Derrida and a long standing controversy regarding his work* Cavell is a cult figure in the US and has his own following: eg. Stephen Mulhalla s recent OUP book about him. .
