Recenzii
Spectacular Logic in Hegel and Debord both contributes to this restoration and offers some revisions of the studies that preceded it. But in doing so, it provides far more than a mere analysis of Hegel's influence on Debord.
Eric-John Russell is a brilliant and ingenious young writer and critic who needs and deserves to be heard; it takes courage to listen. Find it.
Debord was at risk of getting reduced to a media theorist or an appendix to historical avant-gardes, fashionable and superseded at the same time. Russell's book helps to put Debord in his right place in the history of critical thought, especially by pointing out his advancement of Hegel's philosophy. By utilizing hitherto unpublished material from the Guy Debord archive at the Bibliothèque nationale de France, Russell upholds with exacting detail and formidable prowess Debord's concept of the spectacle as a critical theory of society.
This book makes a serious and valuable contribution to the study of Debord's work. It demonstrates that his theory of 'spectacle' is not just a critique of the mass media, but rather a nuanced Hegelian social ontology that echoes some of the Frankfurt School's central concerns. Recommended.
