Pressestimmen
"[D]e la Durantaye's critical introduction for Stanford's increasingly impressive work in continental philosophy . . . assist[s] in clarifying why Agamben's philosophy deserves our attention . . . [de la Durantaye] shows a delicate touch in noting important conceptual connections many might overlook in the primary sources."—Benjamin Hutchens, Philosophy in Review
"Leland de la Durantaye has not only offered an illuminating and provocative account of Agamben's most important work, he has also made this philosophical corpus appealing and accessible to a very broad audience—to all those interested in aesthetics, literature, ethics, and political theory. Carefully attuned to the multiple voices of Agamben's rich polyphony, in both a theoretical and historical sense, this book generously invites the reader to consider and reflect upon some of the most pressing issues in contemporary thought." —John Hamilton, New York University
"Readers of Giorgio Agamben have long yearned for a guide to his work. This book is just such a guide: comprehensive, erudite, reliable, up-to-date, accessible, and properly critical. Leland de la Durantaye traces meticulously the development of concepts and terms in Agamben's oeuvre and provides future scholarship with a sound footing."—Wlad Godzic, University of California, Santa Cruz
Kurzbeschreibung
Giorgio Agamben is a philosopher well known for his brilliance and erudition, as well as for the difficulty and diversity of his seventeen books. The interest which his Homo Sacer sparked in America is likely to continue to grow for a great many years to come. Giorgio Agamben: A Critical Introduction presents the complexity and continuity of Agamben's philosophy—and does so for two separate and distinct audiences. It attempts to provide readers possessing little or no familiarity with Agamben's writings with points of entry for exploring them. For those already well acquainted with Agamben's thought, it offers a critical analysis of the achievements that have marked it.

Having written on Giorgio Agamben myself (in 1999 and again in 2005) and having wanted myself to produce a comprehensive study of Agamben's work as a whole (and not merely his recent and controversial Homo Sacer project) I was delighted to discover this book by the young Harvard scholar. Upon reading the book I at once contacted Professor Durantaye to congratulate him on what I feel is a real achievement. Like me, he sees a profound coherence to Agamben's work as a whole despite the philosopher's extraordinary and intimidating range of interests, readings and scholarly investigations which border on the esoteric. Any future serious discussion of Agamben's work will have to pass through this essential volume.
The volume is less a critical introduction to than a critical magnification of Agamben's work. Whatever the reader thinks of Agamben's daring philosophical, aesthetic, or political conclusions, Durantaye thoroughly elaborates the reasoning, resources, allusions, paradoxes and intellectual proximities with unparalleled clarity and fairness. This is not a polemical text but an unintimidated tracking of the philosopher's investigations wherever they may have led. In addition, numerous corrections of previous publication information concerning Agamben's works are cited. Anyone who wishes to understand Agamben's work in whole or in part must have this volume at hand.
