Rezension zu „The Spectralities Reader “
From Freud's and Adorno's rejection of the occult, to Derrida's rehabilitation of the spectral turn, this volume presents a compelling argument for a continued interest in the noisy ghosts of our culture. Not content to limit their remit, the editors have chosen brilliant extracts that explore trauma, memory and history, tracing the spectral through literary theory and criticism, philosophy, psychology, anthropology, and economics. It is a book which is strong enough to include an auto-critique of its structuring concept, while showing why that concept still remains vital today. An invaluable collection on the uncanny and the ghostly which should haunt its readers for years to come. Dr. Pamela Thurschwell, Senior Lecturer, School of English, University of Sussex, UK The Spectralities Reader is a welcoming invitation to the recent seance with our unfinished past. Its editors prove to be perfect spirit guides, providing steely clarity to a realm that often befuddles and bewitches. -- Ben Highmore, Professor of Cultural Studies, University of Sussex, UK
