Macksey was a celebrated Johns Hopkins University professor whose affiliation with the university spanned six and a half decades. A legendary figure not only in his own fields of critical theory, comparative literature, and film studies but across all the humanities, Macksey possessed enormous intellectual capacity and a deeply insightful human nature. He was a man who read and wrote in six languages, was instrumental in launching a new era in structuralist thought in America, maintained a personal library containing a staggering collection of books and manuscripts, inspired generations of students to follow him to the thorniest heights of the human intellect, and penned or edited dozens of volumes of scholarly works, fiction, poetry, and translation."-Johns Hopkins University.

Seller's Description:
Very good in very good dust jacket. Outline: -History in Transit comprises Dominick LaCapra`s explorations of relationships he believes have been insufficiently theorized: between experience and identity between history and various theories of subjectivity between extreme events and their representation between institutional structures and the kinds of knowledge produced within them. Taken together these discussions form a dialogical encounter positing the links among epistemological questions historicist ones and issues pertaining to disciplinary and institutional politics. Reacting against the antitheoretical bias of some prominent historians LaCapra presents an alternative model of historiographical practice-one in which emphases on plurality and hybridity are combined with the concept of historical experience. For LaCapra experience emerges as a category both theoretically determined and anchored in the facticity of the everyday. LaCapra tests the assumptions and implications of the way one approaches the past by looking to psychoanalysis to render more self-aware the relationship between the historian and his or her material. He offers criticisms of assumptions held by practicing historians and theorists placing the study of history at the center of a larger argument about the role of the contemporary university. Contesting both corporatization and claims that the university is in ruins LaCapra writes "It is paradoxical that the demand to make the university conform to an ever-increasing extent to a market or business model seems oblivious to the fact that the American university has probably been the most successful of its type in the world that students from other countries disproportionately desire to study in it."-> the publisher of this PAPERBACK book is Cornell Paperbacks The date of this copy is 2004 booksalvation have grade it as Very Good and it will be shipped from our UK warehouse This book is from the Series.
