Synopsis
What is the legacy of Theory after the deaths of so many of its leading lights, from Jacques Derrida to Roland Barthes? Bringing together reflections by leading contemporary scholars, Dead Theory explores the afterlives of the work of the great theorists and the current state of Theory today. Considering the work of thinkers such as Derrida, Deleuze, and Levinas, the book explores the ways in which Theory has long been haunted by death and how it might endure for the future.

Review
“Each essay crackles with fresh and compelling insights ... This collection bears special significance because it manages to clarify the relationship between death and theory and provides depth and rich insight. It is a welcome breath of fresh air in these stifling times, for it challenges readers to assess today’s state of theory in its relation to death.” – Journal of Modern Literature
