Crafted by Hugh J. Silverman (Series Editor and Executive Director of the International Association for Philosophy and Literature), the new TEXTURES: PHILOSOPHY / LITERATURE / CULTURE BOOK series explores dimensions of current thinking in contemporary continental philosophy, literary study, aesthetic theory, film, art, video, and architectural theory in a dramatic new way.
Linked to the annual conferences and activities of the International Association for Philosophy and Literature, this series brings to fruition the results of these IAPL events in thoughtfully conceived and articulate studies of dynamic topics with lasting interest for years to come.
Each book is carefully shaped marked by the volume editors’ General Introduction outlining the theme and topical area, individual Introductions to each of the thematic sections, a detailed set of Notes and list of Abbreviations linked to the project, a comprehensive Bibliography and Contributor Notes for each volume. Contributors include both highly visible and well-known figures in the field as well as younger scholars with new insights into the topic.
These books are great for Course Adoptions and will be a wonderful asset to any personal library, college or university collection.
TEXTURES books will continue to have ongoing value as significant statements on dominant intellectual issues of the day.
IAPL Members are encouraged to consider using TEXTURES books in their course assignments.
