Focusing on his personal day-to-day experiences of the \"shelter-in-place\" period during the first months of the coronavirus pandemic, Moreiras engages with the limits and possibilities of critical thought in the realm of the infrapolitical--the conditions of existence that exceed average understandings of politics and philosophy. In each dated entry he works through the process of formulating a life's worth of thought and writing while attempting to locate the nature of thought once the coordinates of everyday life have changed. Offering nothing less than a phenomenology of thinking, Moreiras shows how thought happens in and out of a life, at a certain crossroads where memories collide, where conversations with interlocutors both living and dead evolve and thinking during a suspended state becomes provisional and uncertain.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAlberto Moreiras is Professor of Hispanic Studies at Texas A\u0026amp;M University and author of \u003ci\u003eThe Exhaustion of Difference: The Politics of Latin American Cultural Studies\u003c\/i\u003e, also published by Duke University Press, \u003ci\u003eAgainst Abstraction: Notes from an Ex-Latin Americanist\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eInfrapolitics: A Handbook\u003c\/i\u003e. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Camila Moreiras is a translator, artist, and filmmaker.\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 208\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.5 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e December 02, 2022\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47409332060338,"sku":"9781478016380","price":153.83,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0770\/3891\/1666\/files\/14519853e06a2f64cc76a5adf626164f.webp?v=1778263806","url":"https:\/\/box.dadyminds.org\/products\/uncanny-rest-for-antiphilosophy-hardcover","provider":"DADYMINDS BOX","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
