Paperback. Rhetorically charged debates over theory have divided humanities scholars for decades. Rodowick steps back from arguments pro and con to assess why theory has become such a deeply contested concept. Far from lobbying for a return to the high theory of the 1980s, he calls for dialogue on an ethically inflected philosophy of the humanities." Num Pages: 304 pages. BIC Classification: ABA; AC; HPN. Category: (G) General (US: Trade). Dimension: 149 x 229 x 26. Weight in Grams: 424.
