Racial Terror in America Grant Farred
Edited by Peter Gordon DUKE UNIVERSITY PRESS
It has been fi�y years since Theodor Adorno's Aesthe�c Theory was first published in 1970, a year a�er his death. Aesthe�c Theory was met with ini�al resistance, in part because its aesthe�c criteria appeared an�quated. This issue reckons with the dialec�cal complexity of this o�en misunderstood and misinterpreted work.
UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA PRESS
Framed through the experiences of the author’s biracial son, An Essay for Ezra is intensely personal while also powerfully universal. Drawing on the social and poli�cal thought of James Baldwin & Mar�n Luther King, Farred examines the tempta�on and the perils of essen�alism and the need to discriminate—to engage the black mind as much as the black body.

In this bold argument, Robert Booth asserts that the environmental crisis stems from our anthropocentric understanding of, and behavior in, the more-than-human world. Linking environmental phenomenology to ecofeminism, he shows why and how an ecophenomenological praxis may interrupt the environmental crisis at its source.
Povinelli theorizes the clima�c, environmental, viral, and social catastrophe present as an ancestral catastrophe that Indigenous and colonized peoples have been suffering through for centuries. In this way, the violence and philosophies the West relies on now threatens the West itself.

UNIVERSITY OF NOTRE DAME PRESS
Gregory Mellema presents a philosophical approach to the moral issues involved in complicity. Star�ng with a taxonomy of Thomas Aquinas, according to whom there are nine ways for one to become complicit in the wrongdoing of another, Mellema analyzes each kind of complicity and examines the moral status of someone complicit in each of these ways.
FORDHAM UNIVERSITY PRESS
Examines two o�en neglected aspects of Jacques Derrida’s work as a philosopher, his public presenta�ons at lectures and conferences and his teaching, along with the ques�on of the “speech act” that links them. What, Michael Naas asks, is one doing when one speaks in public in these ways? 2

As tyrannical passions plague twenty-first-century poli�cs, ancient Greek epics and tragedies provide a vital an�dote. Classicist Emily Katz Anhalt retells tales from key ancient Greek texts and interprets the important messages they hold, showing how their lessons can help us to eradicate tyranny in all its toxic forms.

Shows the con�nued relevance of deconstruc�on for contemporary thought’s engagement with resolutely material issues and with ma�ers of life and the living.

From Default Atheism to the Surprise of Revelation William Desmond UNIVERSITY OF NOTRE DAME PRESS
UNIVERSITY OF PENNSYLVANIA PRESS
In Godsends, Desmond’s newest addi�on to his ambi�ous masterwork, he presents an original reflec�on on what he calls the “companioning” of philosophy and religion. Throughout the book, he follows an i�nerary that has something of an Augus�nian likeness: from the exterior to the interior, from the inferior to the superior.
The essays in this collec�on, by one of the most recognized figures in the field of intellectual history, touch on a wide variety of topics, ranging from the heroism of modern life to the ability of photographs to lie, and explore the fraught connec�on between the truth of history and the truthfulness of historians.

Over the decades readers have found a punk Acker, a feminist Acker, a queer Acker, a kink Acker, and an avant-garde Acker. In Philosophy for Spiders, McKenzie Wark adds a trans Acker. Wark recounts her memories of Acker (with whom she had a passionate affair) and gives a comprehensive reading of her published and archived works.
This collec�ve study of the James siblings—Alice, William, and Henry—lights up their shared intellectual project: showing how minds meet in a world teeming with possibili�es and risks.

Is sustainability a hopelessly vague word, with meager purpose aside from a feel-good appeal to the consumer?
