http://schema.org/description

  • "Jean-Jacques Lecercle's amusing yet rigorous account of how the genre of nonsense was constructed, and why such writers as Lewis Carroll and Edward Lear are of enduring significance to both philosophy and linguistics."
  • "'Jean-Jacques Lecercle's remarkable Philosophy of Nonsense offers a sustained and important account of an area that is usually hastily dismissed. Using the resources of contemporary philosophy - notably Deleuze and Lyotard - he manages to bring out the importance of nonsense' - Andrew Benjamin, University of Warwick Why are we, and in particular why are philosophers and linguists, so fascinated with nonsense? Why do Lewis Carroll and Edward Lear appear in so many otherwise dull and dry academic books? This amusing, yet rigorous new."
