Devoting one main chapter to each facet of McCarthy?s thought ? his metaphysics, epistemology, and ethics, respectively ? the study engages in focused readings of all of McCarthy?s major works. Along the way, the study brings McCarthy?s ideas into conversation with a host of philosophers who range from Plato to Alain Badiou, with figures such as William James, Martin Heidegger, Hannah Arendt, and Slavoj ?i?ek featured prominently. Situated at the crossroads of literary studies, literary theory, cultural studies, continental philosophy, and theology, the appeal of Cormac McCarthy?s Philosophy is widespread and deeply interdisciplinary. . 410 0$aAmerican Literature Readings in the 21st Century,$x2634-5803 606 $aAmerica$xLiteratures 606 $aLiterature, Modern$x20th century 606 $aLiterature, Modern$x21st century 606 $aNorth American Literature 606 $aTwentieth-Century Literature 606 $aContemporary Literature 615 0$aAmerica$xLiteratures. 615 0$aLiterature, Modern$x20th century. 615 0$aLiterature, Modern$x21st century. 615 14$aNorth American Literature. 615 24$aTwentieth-Century Literature. 615 24$aContemporary Literature. 676 $a813.54 700 $aHawkins$b Ty$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01058274 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910255068003321 996 $aCormac McCarthy?s Philosophy$92498476 997 $aUNINA
