Eight academics from the U.S., UK, and Australia contribute eight essays examining the impact of Samuel Weber's (humanities, Northwestern U.) work on writers and thinkers across a range of subjects and disciplines in the arts and humanities, including literary, critical and cultural theory; cultural, media and communication studies; new media and technology; psychoanalysis; and continental philosophy. Three of the eight essays have been previously published. The text also features two new, previously unpublished essays by Weber, "God Bless America!" and "Going Along for the Ride: Violence and Gestures--Agamben Reading Benjamin Reading Kafka Reading Cervantes."
