Modern French Philosophy

1981 || Paperback || Vincent Descombes || Cambridge University Press

This is a critical introduction to modern French philosophy, commissioned from one of the liveliest contemporary practitioners and intended for an English-speaking readership.

Pilate and Jesus

2015 || Paperback || Giorgio Agamben || Stanford University Press

Pontius Pilate is one of the most enigmatic figures in Christian theology.

Is Free Speech Under Threat?

One big question. Two great answers.

2024 || Hardcover || Charlotte Lydia Riley e.a. || Bodley Head

One big question. Two great answers. In Is Free Speech Under Threat? two leading thinkers tackle the issue at the very heart of the culture wars.

Suzanne Nossel (CEO of PEN America) puts the case that even though there is an important rebalancing of power taking place in society today, rightly giving minority voices the space and prominence they have long been owed, even so the uncompromising intolerance of a left-leaning minority crosses the threshold of an important principle on which free ...
