Publisher Description
Real Presences argues that any understanding of the nature of language is based on the assumption of God's presence, and discusses the influence of this on literary criticism.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Steiner asserts moral and metaphysical issues are the basis of all art and that our experience of meaning in music, painting and literature presupposes the existence of God as a ``necessary possibility.'' ``Dense, difficult, rewarding, this passionately argued essay ranges fluently over aesthetics, linguistics, philosophy, post-structuralism, the range of Western culture,'' said PW.
