Renunciation : Acts of Abandonment by Writers, Philosophers, and Artists

Bok av Posnock Ross Posnock
Renunciation as a creative force is the animating idea behind Ross Posnock's new book. Taking up acts of abandonment, rejection, and refusal that have long baffled critics, he shows how renunciation has reframed the relationship of writers, philosophers, and artists to society in productive and unpredictable ways.
