Opis

Beyond the Ancient Quarrel brings together contributions from leading scholars to explore the boundaries between literature, philosophy, and literary criticism in the work of J.M. Coetzee.

Recenzje

There is something refreshingly uncompromising about Beyond the Ancient Quarrel . . . [it] not only offers many rich insights into the link between literary form and philosophical configurations of reality, but also reveals how Coetzee helps us reconfigure our own post-theory era in light of earlier developments.
