Sawyer takes a close look at the later work of French philosopher Jean-François Lyotard. He focuses his examination of the philosopher on the thinker’s writings about literature in general, and
on the presenting of the unpresentable (or differend) in literature. Sawyer goes on to argue that the philosopher’s concept of the unpresentable is flawed in general, and offers specific
examples of the unpresentable as presented in literature from the classical period through contemporary times. Annotation ©2014 Ringgold, Inc., Portland, OR (protoview.com)
