His clear and accessible primer on literary theory was (and is) an indispensable guide to the post-modern era in the humanities. Now Eagleton argues that the golden age of cultural theory has ended, and with characteristic wit and verve, he traces its rise and fall from structuralism to post-colonial studies and beyond. In a new era of globalization and terrorism, Eagleton warns, the bundle of ideas known as post-modernism is essentially toothless.In this eloquent synthesis of a lifetime of learning, Eagleton challenges contemporary intellectuals to engage with a range of vital topics-love, evil, death, morality, religion, and revolution-that they've ignored over the past thirty years. Lively and provocative, Eagleton's latest will engage readers inside and outside the academy who are eager for a more holistic and humane way of \"reading\" the world.\"A rare opportunity to enjoy the art of cultural and social diagnosis at its purest! Eagleton offers a unique combination of theoretical stringency and acerbic common-sense witticism, of critical historical reflection and the ability to ask the 'big' metaphysical questions.\"-Slavoj Zizek\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Basic Books","offers":[{"title":"After Theory | Terry Eagleton | Hardcover | 9780465017737 | Used: Good | Back Stacks E 1743285","offer_id":48180516716696,"sku":"1743285","price":8.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0492\/1609\/4360\/files\/61Ba513v-IL.jpg?v=1772226329","url":"https:\/\/roundaboutbookstore.com\/products\/after-theory","provider":"Roundabout Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
