CORNELL UNIVERSITY PRESS
Offers a startling reinterpretation of the evolution of Adorno's thought, usually seen as a mix of critical Marxism, Freudian psychoanalysis, aesthetic modernism, and Jewish tradition. Mikko Immanen argues for another, previously unacknowledged source of his thinking on instrumental reason, dialectic of enlightenment, and frailty of democracy: the intellectual underpinnings of Germany's "conservative revolutionary" movement of the 1920s.

9781503641136 £20.99/ $24.00 PB
9781503640573 £85.00/ $95.00 HB STANFORD UNIVERSITY PRESS
Severo Sarduy was among the most important figures in twentieth-century Latin American fiction and a major representative of the literary tendency to which he gave the name Neobaroque. While most of Sarduy's literary work is available in English, his theoretical writings have largely remained untranslated. This volume remedies that oversight.

9780268208295 £49.00/ $55.00 HB
UNIVERSITY OF NOTRE DAME PRESS
Explores the relationship between morality and medicine in a society that has denied the existence of God. Argues that by rejecting its Christian roots, the Western world has upended traditional understandings of truth that are central to both scientific and moral judgment. Cherry challenges us to consider the repercussions of pushing forward in medicine without the support of a solid ethical foundation.
In Arendt's Solidarity, Kim illuminates Arendt's lifelong struggle by drawing upon her publications, unpublished documents, private letters, radio and television interviews, newspaper clippings, and more. Kim examines how Arendt refutes solidarity as an effective political force against anti-Semitism, racial injustice, or social inequality.

Deeply informed by jazz, Billie's Bent Elbow explores the nonsensical in black radical thought and expression.

Philosophy at the Gymnasium returns Greek moral philosophy to its original context— the gyms of Athens—to understand how training for the body sparked training for the mind. The result is an engaging inroad to Greek thought that wrestles with big questions about life, happiness, and education, while providing fresh perspectives on standing scholarly debates.
Prosthetic Immortalities
Biology, Transhumanism, and the Search for Indefinite Life
Rosenthal ultimately argues that the discovery of biological immortals—lifeforms that naturally have indefinitely long lifespans, such as cancer cells and bacteria—present novel conceptual difficulties for traditional philosophical approaches to mortality and selfhood, asking whether it is life itself that first births immortalizing prostheses.

FORDHAM UNIVERSITY PRESS
Jean-Luc Nancy embarks on nothing less than a philosophy of the city. Nancy views the city as the site of a disposition that is constantly undergoing metamorphoses. Far from an abstract account, Nancy attends in the most concrete way possible to the workings of a city not typically taken as paradigmatic, Los Angeles. As JeanChristophe Bailly suggests in his foreword, Nancy joins Walter Benjamin in thinking the city not from an external vantage point, but on its own terms.

FORDHAM UNIVERSITY PRESS
One of the enduring claims in the Christian tradition is that creation is good. Given the diversity of experience and the abundance of suffering in the world, however, such an affirmation is not always straightforward. The Play of Goodness provides a phenomenology of creation’s goodness that clarifies the ongoing relevance of the doctrine today.
