Mimesis, Expression, Construction brings Fredric Jameson´s seminar on Adorno&rsquos Aesthetic Theory into print for the first time."Mindblowing... What we get here is not the insight in some secret core of Jameson&rsquos thought lost in later gentrified published versions but, on the contrary, a flow of improvisations and mental experimentations where the detours through secondary topics are often more precious than the main line of argumentation." Slavoj ŽižekMimesis, Expression, Construction brings Fredric Jameson&rsquos Duke University seminar on Adorno&rsquos Aesthetic Theory into print for the first time.Comprised of twentyone seminar transcripts in which Jameson engages with his students as they explore Adorno&rsquos Aesthetic Theory, one of the most influential theories of modern art, this volume is also the first and only record of Jameson&rsquos teachings and pedagogic practice.Transcribed directly from audio recordings taken by the editor when the seminar was given in 2003, and presented like a play with closed captioning and stage directions, Mimesis, Expression, Construction is a new entry in the work of one of the greatest living philosophers.
