The Agamben Dictionary

The first dictionary dedicated to the work of Giorgio Agamben.

In recent years Agamben’s work has gained prominence for its incisive critique of the Western political tradition. Yet this has often resulted in a selective reading of his broad body of work, rather than one that addresses it as a complex whole. The Agamben Dictionary has brought together leading and emerging scholars from across the world to provide this essential overview of his work.
