Moving across an impressive range of sources, Mikko Tuhkanen seeks out the \"fundamental notes\"-the questions that we find and refind-in Bersani's extensive oeuvre across the decades. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe chapters explore Bersani's engagement with psychoanalytic theory (Freud, Laplanche, Klein, Lacan), French and American modernist fiction (Proust, Baudelaire, Mallarmé, James, Beckett), poststructuralist theory (Derrida, Foucault, Deleuze, Guattari, Blanchot), queer theory (Butler, Edelman), and the visual arts (Caravaggio, Almodóvar, Pasolini, Malick, Dumont). This first introduction to Bersani's work provides a chronological overview of his thought and details his contributions to literary studies and critical theory.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Mikko Tuhkanen\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1623564115\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781623564117\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bloomsbury Academic\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/12\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 344\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.19lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.81d","brand":"Mikko Tuhkanen","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48439866065151,"sku":"9781623564117","price":130.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_483cd9ca-b2d5-4065-9644-8a5ba69b7eb0.jpg?v=1777179591","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/leo-bersani-mikko-tuhkanen-9781623564117","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
