Michael Clune, the Samuel B. and Virginia C. Knight Professor of Humanities, shared his thoughts on Elizabeth Anker’s new book, On Paradox: The Claims of Theory, in an opinion piece for the Los Angeles Review of Books.
In Clune’s piece, titled “The Paradox Paradox: On Elizabeth S. Anker’s On Paradox,” he discussed the book’s premise in which Anker posits that faith in the logic of paradox has been the cornerstone of left intellectualism since the second half of the 20th century.
