Paul De Man Routledge Revivals

Zusatztext 'His grasp of the historical and philosophical dimensions of the styles and arguments of contemporary literary theory is quite extraordinary and illuminating.' - N. Lukacher, University of Illinois at Chicago Zusammenfassung Paul de Man changed the landscape of criticism through his rigorous theories and writings. This book addresses de Man's relationship to philosophical thinking in the post-Kantian tradition, his concern with 'aesthetic ideology' as a potent force of mystification within and beyond that tradition, and the vexed issue of de Man's politics.
