Author of many books on critical theory and deconstruction, and, more recently, of several collections of formal-verse poetry. Professor Christopher Norris has published more then 30 books on critical theory, linguistics, post-structuralism, logic, truth and meaning, as well as, more recently, several collections of poetry. Chris’s most well-known book is probably his widely used introduction to deconstruction, but he has also written important texts on Badiou, Spinoza, and others. Norris took on the question of “post-truth” long before it became a prominent topic of debate in the last decade.

  • Language and sayability at Pausing Time/Timing the Pause: sayability in the arts, philosophy, and politics ( 2024 )
