"PARAESTHETICS--a neologism invented by David Carroll to unlock the crucial, extra-aesthetic implications of art and literature in the work of three of contemporary theory's most important figures: Michel Foucault, Jean-Francois Lyotard, and Jacques Derrida. This new study focuses on the art/literature problem in each thinker's work, and how this issue provides critical perspectives on philosophy, history, and political theory. At a time when the most important theoretical contributions of the past two decades are more and more frequently distorted, blindly attacked, or simply dismissed in the name of a 'new historicism' or a return to so-called anti-theoretical, empirical forms of analysis, PARAESTHETICS constitutes a defense of critical theory, arguing that one of the most crucial aspects of the work of Foucault, Lyotard, and Derrida has generally been ignored by both their opponents and followers. David Carroll's new book demonstrates that their concern for the question of art or literature does not constitute a denial of history or a repression of socio-political issues, but is on the contrary an invaluable tool in their respective reworking of philosophy, history, and political theory."
