(Radical Thinkers)
by Jacques Ranciere, Liz Heron, Jacques Ranciã¨Re
Paperback, 107 Pages, Published 2007 by Verso
ISBN-13: 978-1-84467-577-7, ISBN: 1-84467-577-7

"It is frequently said that we are living through the end of politics, the end of social upheavals, the end of utopian folly. Consensual realism is the order of the day. But political realists, remarks Jacques Ranciere, are always several steps behind reality, and the only thing which may come to an end with their dominance is democracy. ‘We could’, he suggests, ‘merely smile at the duplicity of the conclusion/suppression of politics whi ..."

ISBN-13: 978-1-78168-150-3, ISBN: 1-78168-150-3

"In this vehement defence of democracy, Jacques Ranciere explodes the complacency of Western politicians who pride themselves as the defenders of political freedom.

Aesthetics and Its Discontents(1st Edition)
by Jacques Ranciere, Jacques Ranciã¨Re, Steven Corcoran
Paperback, 176 Pages, Published 2009 by Polity
ISBN-13: 978-0-7456-4631-2, ISBN: 0-7456-4631-X

"Translated by Steven Corcoran Only yesterday aesthetics stood accused of concealing cultural games of social distinction. Now it is considered a parasitic discourse from which artistic practices must be freed. But aesthetics is not a discourse. It is an historical regime of the identification of art. This regime is paradoxical, because it founds the autonomy of art only at the price of suppressing the boundaries separating its practices ..."

ISBN-13: 978-0-8264-8954-8, ISBN: 0-8264-8954-0

"The Politics of Aesthetics rethinks the relationship between art and politics, reclaiming "aesthetics" from the narrow confines it is often reduced to. Jacques Rancière reveals its intrinsic link to politics by analysing what they both have in common: the delimitation of the visible and the invisible, the audible and the inaudible, the thinkable and the unthinkable, the possible and the impossible. Presented as a set of inter-linked int ..."

ISBN-13: 978-1-78873-652-7, ISBN: 1-78873-652-4

"These essays from the 1970s mark the inception of the distinctive project that Jacques Rancière has pursued across forty years, with four interwoven themes: the study of working-class identity, of its philosophical interpretation, of “heretical” knowledge and of the relationship between work and leisure.

Paperback, 81 Pages, Published 2013 by Univocal Publishing
ISBN-13: 978-1-937561-15-4, ISBN: 1-937561-15-1

"From "Almanac of Fall" (1984) to "The Turin Horse" (2011), renowned Hungarian filmmaker Bela Tarr has followed the collapse of the communist promise. The "time after" is not the uniform and morose time of those who no longer believe in anything. It is the time when we are less interested in histories and their successes or failures than we are in the delicate fabric of time from which they are carved. It is the time of pure material eve ..."

"Throughout his career, shaped by a notable collaboration with Louis Althusser, Jacques Rancière has continually unsettled political discourse, particularly by examining its relationship to aesthetics. Like Michel Foucault, he broke with his many of his predecessors to upend dominant twentieth-century historical narratives and critical theories. Often overlooked in the canon of his works, Mute Speech contains the critical seeds of Ranci ..."






Politics of Literature(1st Edition)
by Jacques Ranciere, Julie Rose, Prof Jacques Rancière
Paperback, 248 Pages, Published 2011 by Polity
ISBN-13: 978-0-7456-4531-5, ISBN: 0-7456-4531-3

"The politics of literature is not the same as the politics of writers and their commitments, nor does it concern the way writers represent social structures or political struggles. The expression 'politics of literature' assumes that there is a specific connection between politics as a form of collective practice and literature as a historically determined regime of the art of writing. It implies that literature intervenes in the parcel ..."

ISBN-13: 978-0-8047-4078-4, ISBN: 0-8047-4078-X

"This new collection of challenging literary studies plays with a foundational definition of Western culture: the word become flesh. But the word become flesh is not, or no longer, a theological already-given. It is a millennial goal or telos toward which each text strives. Both witty and immensely erudite, Jacques Rancière leads the critical reader through a maze of arrivals toward the moment, perhaps always suspended, when the word ..."
