On Creaturely Life: Rilke, Benjamin, Sebald
"Eric Santner's On Creaturely Life deserves a tribute, not a blurb. His intricate series of interlocutions between Rilke, Benjamin, Heidegger, Agamben, and Sebald make a kind of chamber music, rich with intellectual intuition and ethical clarity. Santner transforms and transposes the great themes of human and historical mediation in a range of keys - poetic, political, textual, juridical." - Homi K. Bhabha, Harvard University"
