He is a theoretical innovator whose ideas about the intersections of politics and culture have reshaped the critical landscape across the humanities and social sciences. Bringing together ten interviews conducted between 1982 and 2005, \u003ci\u003eJameson on Jameson\u003c\/i\u003e is a compellingly candid introduction to his thought for those new to it, and a rich source of illumination and clarification for those seeking deeper understanding. Jameson discusses his intellectual and political preoccupations, most prominently his commitment to Marxism as a way of critiquing capitalism and the culture it has engendered. He explains many of his key concepts, including postmodernism, the dialectic, metacommentary, the political unconscious, the utopian, cognitive mapping, and spatialization.\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eJameson on Jameson\u003c\/i\u003e displays Jameson’s extraordinary grasp of contemporary culture-architecture, art, cinema, literature, philosophy, politics, psychoanalysis, and urban geography-as well as the challenge that the geographic reach of his thinking poses to the Eurocentricity of the West. Conducted by accomplished scholars from United States, Egypt, Korea, China, Sweden, and England, the interviews elicit Jameson’s reflections on the broad international significance of his ideas and their applicability and implications in different cultural and political contexts, including the present phase of globalization.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe volume includes an introduction by Jameson and a comprehensive bibliography of his publications in all languages.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInterviewers\u003cbr\u003eMona Abousenna \u003cbr\u003eAbbas Al-Tonsi\u003cbr\u003eSrinivas Aravamudan\u003cbr\u003eJonathan Culler\u003cbr\u003eSara Danius\u003cbr\u003eLeonard Green\u003cbr\u003eSabry Hafez\u003cbr\u003eStuart Hall \u003cbr\u003eStefan Jonsson\u003cbr\u003eRanjana Khanna\u003cbr\u003eRichard Klein\u003cbr\u003eHoracio Machin\u003cbr\u003ePaik Nak-chung\u003cbr\u003eMichael Speaks \u003cbr\u003eAnders Stephanson\u003cbr\u003eXudong Zhang\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rarewaves","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57286319604086,"sku":"9780822341093","price":21.69,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0092\/7504\/8033\/files\/orig_40027394_2a764018-a735-4227-a72a-41e2eecc9aef.jpg?v=1771484294","url":"https:\/\/www.rarewaves.com\/products\/9780822341093-jameson-on-jameson","provider":"Rarewaves.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
