This acclaimed study surveys the dominant popular and scholarly images of the Israel Palestine conflict. Finkelstein opens with a theoretical discussion of Zionism, locating it as a romantic form of nationalism that assumed the bankruptcy of liberal democracy. He goes on to look at the demographic origins of the Palestinians, with particular reference to the work of Joan Peters, and develops critiques of the influential studies of both Benny Morris and Anita Shapira. Reviewing the diplomatic history with Aban Eban s oeuvre as his foil, Finkelstein closes by demonstrating that the casting of...

"Norman Finkelstein's TRACK undertakes a voyage beset by recombinatory duress. An excursis through realms where 'the letters / arrive to be destroyed, ' this wickedly wise poem keeps on arriving long after it's done a lingering trade or track of mind in mind, trouble in mind. It is a beautiful, beguiling book of unrest." Nathaniel Mackey "TRACK enacts what it is haunted by, casting spells because it remains under spells, as is all writing which finds itself too late for a... Poetry.

Lyrical Interference: Essays on Poetics
ISBN: 9780972066228 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 145 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The wild is always unprecedented, but never inconsistent. This is the knowledge that makes American scholarship American. Norman Finkelstein offers unprecedented insights here whose facts consist of one Soul purpose: Friendship. Here the imagination of poetry is Friendship on the line. And driving that line are energies of the inevitable (if we are to live, Friendship is inevitable): motions outward; an outstretched hand; a goddamn big car bought and paid for lovingly. These energies speak simply, and doing so, they accomplish new simplicities which Finkelstein boldly proposes as the most...

The Fashioned Self
ISBN: 9780745606873 / Angielski / Twarda / 1991 / 220 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. This book examines the nature of the self and self-identity in the modern age, and the way in which they have been moulded through the alteration of bodily appearance, exemplified fashions, facelifts and diets. The idea that an individual's character is revealed through physical appearance is, Finkelstein argues, deeply embedded in Western culture. And since fashions and cosmetics are closely linked to sexual difference, the author concentrates on aspects of gender identity, suggesting that the female and male identity are differentiated through opposed experiences of the body.
