David Rudrum is a Senior Lecturer in Literature at the University of Huddersfield. He is the author of Stanley Cavell and the Claim of Literature (Johns Hopkins, 2013). He is co-editor of Supplanting the Postmodern (Bloomsbury, 2015), Literature and Philosophy: A Guide to Contemporary Debates (Palgrave, 2006). Ridvan Askin is Postdoctoral Teaching and Research Fellow in American and General Literatures at the University of Basel. His recent publications include two co-edited volumes, Aesthetics in the 21st Century, a special issue of Speculations (2014), and Literature, Ethics, Morality: American Studies Perspectives (Narr, 2015). Frida Beckman is Professor of Comparative Literature at Stockholm University, Sweden. Her books include Control Culture: Foucault and Deleuze after Discipline (Edinburgh University Press, 2018) and Culture Control Critique: Allegories of Reading the Present (Rowman & Littlefield International, 2016). She has also published extensively on Deleuze, where her books include Gilles Deleuze: A Critical Life (Reaktion Books, 2017), Between Desire and Pleasure: A Deleuzian Theory of Sexuality (Edinburgh University Press, 2013) and the edited collection Deleuze and Sex (Edinburgh University Press, 2011).

This collection definitively demonstrates, from a wide range of philosophical traditions and international perspectives, that the so-called 'death of theory' has been greatly exaggerated. New Directions in Philosophy and Literature offers us just that – bold new ways to think about the ancient quarrel between the poets and the philosophers. Highly recommended.
