Beskrivning
Following his death in 2024, Fredric Jameson’s vast body of work continues to challenge orthodoxies while retaining close ties to older critical and philosophical traditions, notably dialectical criticism, formal analysis, and utopian discourse. The Future of Totality brings together a selection of Jameson's former students and other prominent scholars thinking from Jameson, rather than writing on him, to represent future directions of Jamesonian thought in the tradition of dialectical criticism and cultural study. Through four sections reflecting and building on Jameson’s legacy, focusing on theory, critical reading of new forms, the reshaping of contemporary problematics, and new dimensions inspired by Jameson, The Future of Totality makes its own intervention about the continuity and innovation of Jameson’s contributions. Serving as both a tribute to the scholar and a space for thinking about the future of his work, these essays explore new and unforeseen dimensions to which Jameson’s work leads.

“This remarkable volume is jam-packed with intellectually thrilling work from many of the leading minds of our moment. In its brilliant and varied examinations of Jameson’s key arguments, concepts, methods, and style, we see the ongoing vitality of Jameson’s work and the amazing and indeed moving affection that so many of our best thinkers have for Jameson as a teacher, mentor, and writer.”—Jonathan Flatley, Professor of English and Comparative Literature at the University of Chicago“More playful than pious, these essays are must reads even for people who’ve never heard of Fredric Jameson, if any such people exist.”—Bruce Robbins, author of Who's Allowed to Protest?"This collection compiles essays by the likes of Michael Denning, Sianne Ngai and Alberto Toscano that think through Jameson rather than about him, memorializing the breadth and reach of his life’s work and his commitment to Marxism as the ‘untranscendable horizon’ of critical inquiry."—Marko Gluhaich, Frieze
