{"product_id":"9781783481323","title":"Desire After Affect","description":"Desire is a term often used in conjunction with the subject. This desire is directed towards the real, which is defined as the generic core of the linguistic order. As a result of the focus on affect, the three terms—desire, the subject, the real—have been fundamentally shaken up and called into question. Affect, in various forms, is now a matter of concern across a wide range of disciplines including neuroscience, psychology, the humanities, and social sciences. All of these fields have a declared interest in affect, in emotions and sensations, in pathos, passions, and the senses.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDesire After Affect argues that this affective euphoria cannot be explained solely in terms of a repression of language, logos, and reason. It argues that the affective turn is symptomatic of a fundamental shift in modes of thinking about the human condition. It explores what this means for the human and the posthuman, animal and machine, and calls for a new theory of subjectivation, a philosophy of media affect.\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Dutton Penguin Group USA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47170041446640,"sku":"9781783481323","price":37.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781783481323_p0.jpg?v=1769892589","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781783481323","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
