Books in the Continental Philosophy series

This book should be of interest to advanced students of literature, philosophy and critical theory.

This fifth volume of the "Continental Philosophy" series addresses the problem of a contemporary world devoid of foundations. It seeks to explore a post-foundational context of subverted truths, shattered identities, and fragmented cultures.

This volume is a reassessment of Jean Lyotard's legacy and contribution to contemporary cultural, political, ethical, and aesthetic theory and a useful guide to key issues in his philosophy. Fifteen scholars have contributed essays examining the main themes in his work.

This volume attempts to sort out the various ways in which desire happens through readings of contemporary figures such as Bataille, Sartre, de Beauvoir, Levinas, Irigaray, Barthes, Derrida and Deleuze.

A collection of essays tracing the theoretical itinerary of the signifier in the continental tradition, providing links for cultural studies, philosophy, literature, and history, it attempts to understand semiotically, cultural signs and signifiers inscribed in the fabric of cultural practices. In the CONTINENTAL PHILOSOPHY series.
