Milton and the Post-Secular Present: Ethics, Politics, Terrorism (Cultural Memory in the Present) - Hardcover
Críticas
"Mohamed (Univ. of Illinois) attempts to establish a dialogue between the presecular thought of Milton and current post secular thought in which the two cultural perspectives mutually critique each other. The writing style is dense, and the book assumes a reader familiar both with Milton and with modern intellectual movements in literary and cultural theory. . . Recommended." -- B. E. Brandt * Choice * "Feisal G. Mohamed presents a lucid exegesis of the complex ways in which text can serve to unite reader and writer." -- Estelle Haan * Modern Language Review * "Faisal G. Mohamed has written about this question before, and he expands on his views here. . . [T]he book moves steadily towards the discussion of 'Samson Agonistes', and these are the clearest and most convincing chapters. . . Mohamed's analysis here is subtle and strong." -- Neil Forsyth "This is an impressive work, one in which a powerful intellect grapples with difficult problems and spurs us on to further thought rather than foreclosing the issues he addresses by settling into a single conclusion. Mohamed's examination of the tensions between pre/post-secular belief and modern liberalism should interest not only literary critics but also theologians, scholars of religious studies, philosophers and political theorists." -- Tyler Roberts * Grinnell College * "The series in which Mohamed's book appears, Stanford University Press's Cultural Memory in the Present, fosters approaches from innovative theoretical perspectives, and at first glance this seems an unlikely street address for a book on Milton. But on second glance, it is entirely right: Mohamed aims for a critique of current skepticism of anti-foundationalist philosophers through readings of Milton, and his highly original book offers critical reflection on both Milton and the theorists. This is, indeed, a captivatingly eclectic little book, engaging maturely with contemporary issues relevant to the humanities by way of Milton, and it has wide implications beyond Milton studies." -- Sharon Achinstein
