If we are to attend to the proclamations that the representational apparatuses of literature and politics are dead, what aesthetic, ethical, and political possibilities remain for us today? Our critical moment, Graff Zivin argues, demands \u003ci\u003eanarchaeological reading\u003c\/i\u003e: reading for the blind spots, errors, points of opacity or untranslatability in works of philosophy and art. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eRather than applying concepts from philosophy in order to understand or elucidate cultural works, the book exposes works of philosophy, literary theory, narrative, poetry, film, and performance art and activism to one another. Working specifically with art, film, and literature from Argentina (Jorge Luis Borges, Juán José Saer, Ricardo Piglia, César Aira, Albertina Carri, the \u003ci\u003eInternacional Errorista\u003c\/i\u003e), Graff Zivin allows such thinkers as Levinas, Derrida, Badiou, and Rancière to be inflected by Latin American cultural production. Through these acts of interdiscursive and interdisciplinary (or indisciplinary) exposure, such ethical and political concepts as identification and recognition, decision and event, sovereignty and will, are read as constitutively impossible, erroneous. Rather than weakening either ethics or politics, however, the anarchaeological reading these works stage and demand opens up and radicalizes the possibility of justice.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Erin Graff Zivin\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Fordham University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/07\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSeries:\u003c\/b\u003e Lit Z\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 192\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.69lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.48d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780823286812","brand":"Fordham University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42710672048265,"sku":"9780823286812","price":31.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0636\/9240\/6921\/files\/img_d406344a-910b-4e49-b73e-fd043795d044.jpg?v=1719542041","url":"https:\/\/sonsanddaughtersbooks.com\/products\/anarchaeologies-reading-as-misreading-9780823286812","provider":"Sons and Daughters Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
