Institution and Interpretation

"One of the primary proposals of Samuel Weber's important new book is taht we must look at what institutions exclude and delimit as well as what they include and enable."--Critical Texts
"A text of major importance and remarkable originality. For the frist time, the antecedents and the complexities of the question are clearly defined and understood."--Paul de Man, 1983

Samuel Weber is Professor of English at the University of California, Los Angeles, and Director of the UCLA Paris Program in Critical Theory. Among his many books are The Legend of Freud: Expanded Edition (Stanford, 2000) and Mass Mediauras: Form, Technics, Media (Stanford, 1996).
