Inventions of a Present
A novel is an act, an intervention, which, most often, the naïve reader takes as a representation. The novel intervenes to modify or correct our conventional notions of a situation and, in the best and most intense cases, to propose a wholly new idea of what constitutes an event or of the very experience of living. The most interesting contemporary novels are those which try—and sometimes manage—to awaken our sense of a collectivity behind individual experience, revealing a relationship between the isolated subjectivity and a class or community. But even if this happens (which is rare), one must go on to find traces of collective praxis hidden away within the awakened feeling of inter-connection. And since it is in the sense of the nation and nationality that collectivity is most often expressed, there is an urgent need to disengage the possibilities of genuine action within these areas.This sweeping collection of essays ranges from the elusive politics of North American literature to the sometimes frozen narrative experiences of the eastern countries and the Soviet Union and beyond. This is a voyage traversing the globe, discovering a common kinship between each literary destination in late capitalism itself.

The Prison-House of Language
A groundbreaking critical introduction to Structuralism and Russian Formalism by the acclaimed literary theoristIn The Prison-House of Language, Fredric Jameson, one of the most important literary and cultural critics of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, provides a thorough historical and philosophical introduction to Structuralism and Russian Formalism. Combining a survey of these influential critical movements and a critique of their methodology, Jameson lays bare their presuppositions, questioning whether the methods of Saussurean linguistics can adequately capture the concrete realities of time and history. The result is a unique and thought-provoking confrontation of two major strands of modern thought and a central work in the development of Jameson’s monumental critical project.

Risentimento sociale. Sulle alternative al capitalismo globale
In questo pionieristico saggio, Fredric Jameson mette radicalmente in discussione le convenzionali idee della sinistra su ciò che costituisce una società emancipata. Nel volume sostiene, tra le altre cose, l¿importanza di una nuova forma di coscrizione universale, il pieno riconoscimento dell¿invidia e del risentimento come sfide fondamentali per qualsiasi società comunista, nonché l¿accettazione dell¿impossibilità di superare la divisione tra lavoro e tempo libero. Secondo Jameson, per creare un nuovo mondo occorre innanzitutto cambiare il modo in cui lo si immagina: smettendo di sognare una società emancipata, l¿autore innesca un dibattito stimolante sulle possibili alternative al capitalismo globale.

Dossier Benjamin
Walter Benjamin è stato un pensatore anti-filosofico e anti-sistematico. E Fredric Jameson, il più grande critico americano vivente, ne conosce alla perfezione non solo gli scritti, ma anche le ambiguità. Tanto da offrirci una sorprendente lente di lettura di tutte le sue principali opere e di un gran numero di recensioni di libri, note, lettere, che ne rivelano, oltre allo spessore concettuale, l¿inclinazione ineludibile nei confronti della scrittura. Dagli articoli più brevi ai progetti più ambiziosi, dai saggi arcinoti come Baudelaire o L¿opera d¿arte nell¿epoca della sua riproducibilità tecnica ai frammenti postumi, in questo repertorio di documenti e rivelazioni, di enigmi e contraddizioni, non cessa di stupire la coesistenza di campi linguistici e codici tematici apparentemente inconciliabili, la tensione mai domata tra il lato mistico o teologico e la vocazione politica e storica, che rende Benjamin ancora oggi riferimento imprescindibile di ogni indagine sul capitalismo odierno. Le analisi di Jameson dei concetti di gioco e di spazio, di esperienza e città, di massa e citazione si snodano attraverso un ¿corpo a corpö da cui non esce certo un Benjamin facile, ma finalmente scrivibile.

The Years of Theory
Fredric Jameson introduces here the major themes of French theory: existentialism, structuralism, poststructuralism, semiotics, feminism, psychoanalysis, and Marxism. In a series of accessible lectures, Jameson places this effervescent period of thought in the context of its most significant political conjunctures, including the Liberation of Paris, the Algerian War, the uprisings of May ’68, and the creation of the EU.The philosophical debates of the period come to life through anecdotes and extended readings of work by the likes of Sartre, Beauvoir, Fanon, Barthes, Foucault, Althusser, Derrida, Deleuze, groups like Tel Quel and Cahiers du Cinéma, and contemporary thinkers such as Rancière and Badiou. Eclectic, insightful, and inspired, Jameson’s seminars provide an essential account of an intellectual moment comparable in significance to the Golden Age of Athens, historically fascinating and of persistent relevance.
