What is Agamben and the Existentialists about?

## Introduces Agamben as an existentialist figure who takes the philosophy in a startling new direction * Reveals the atheistic underbelly of Agamben’s political theology * Opens new avenues of study by challenging Carl Schmitt’s appropriation of existentialism * Contributors include Vanessa Lemm, Beatrice Marovich, Tom Frost and Lucas Lazzaretti While Giorgio Agamben’s work has not previously been categorised as existentialist, his work creatively repackages important existentialist themes in a politico-theological context. Divided into three sections – 'Agamben and the Sovereign Exception', 'Agamben and the Death of God' and 'Existentialist Themes in Agamben' – this collection challenges, complicates and reimagines Agamben’s critique of the sovereign exception and other existentialist themes including feminism and postcolonialism.
