9781498540599 / Seeing Animals after Derrida (Ecocritical Theory and Practice) Hardcover – November 27, 2017
by Lexington Books (November 27, 2017) (Author)
This volume charts a new course in animal studies that re-examines Jacques Derrida’s enduring thought on the visualization of the animal in his seminal Cerisy Conference from 1997, The Animal That Therefore I Am. Building new proximities with the animal in and through – and at times in spite of – the visual apparatus, Seeing Animals after Derrida investigates how the recent turn in animal studies toward new materialism, speculative realism, and object-oriented ontology prompts a renewed engagement with Derrida’s animal philosophy. In taking up the matter of Derrida’s treatment of animality for the current epoch, the contributors to this book each present a case for new philosophical approaches and aesthetic paradigms that challenge the ocularcentrism of Western culture.
