Editors Alastair Hunt and Stephanie Youngblood shape their collection to provocatively challenge an assumption rife in the humanities, mainly that the idea of redeeming life might hinder important ethical conversations. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e They and their contributors question whether it is intelligent--or even necessary-- to orient our collective ethico-political projects from figures of life, and to posit forms of equality and freedom that might emerge if we did not organize being-together under the sign of life. Taken together the essays in \u003ci\u003eAgainst Life \u003c\/i\u003emark an important turn in the ethico-political work of the humanities. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Alastair Hunt\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0810132125\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780810132122\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Northwestern University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/15\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 288\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.90lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 6.00w x 0.80d","brand":"Alastair Hunt","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48438016344319,"sku":"9780810132122","price":40.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_912b97a7-4f25-4455-a9f1-c1dfa78b5e9e.jpg?v=1777168230","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/against-life-alastair-hunt-9780810132122","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
