This first collection of his philosophical writings to be published in English discloses the full range of Macherey’s interventions, testifying to his signal status as one of France’s leading philosophers. In a Materialist Way ranges over Macherey’s writings on philosophy and theory, critiques of the work of major figures in contemporary French thought such as Lacan, Foucoult and Canguilhem, and analyses of the work of Spinoza. It reveals to English-speaking audiences what has long been common knowlege in France: that Pierre Macherey is among the most fertile, imaginative and subtle of contemporary philosophers.
