Anotace knihy

In "Talking Heads", Benjamin Lee situates himself at the convergence of multiple disciplines: philosophy, linguistics, anthropology, and literary theory. He offers a nuanced exploration of the central questions shared by these disciplines during the modern era - questions regarding the relations between language, subjectivity, community, and the external world. Scholars in each discipline approach these questions from significantly different angles. In seeking to identify and define the intersection of these angles, Lee argues for the development of a new sense of subjectivity, a construct that has repercussions of immense importance beyond the humanities and into the area of politics. "Talking Heads" synthesises the views and works of a breathtaking range of the most influential modern theorists of the humanities and social sciences, including Austin, Searle, Derrida, Jakobson, Bakhtin, Wittgenstein, Peirce, Frege, Kripke, Donnellan, Putnam, Saussure, and Whorf. After illuminating these many rays of thought, Lee moves beyond disciplinary biases and re-embeds within the context of the public sphere, the questions of subjectivity and language raised by this variety of theorists. In his examination of how subjectivity relates not just to grammatical patterns but also to the specific social institutions in which these patterns develop and are sustained, Lee discusses topics such as the concept of public opinion and the emergence of Western nation-states. With its remarkably comprehensive synthesis of this multitude of relevant theories of subjectivity, "Talking Heads" will be a welcome addition to investigations unfolding across a wide spectrum of the human and social sciences.
