Through new readings of his work, the book makes so patently clear the importance of Baudrillard's tendency to poeticize, his core indebtedness to Georges Bataille, Alfred Jarry, and others, and his reliance on paradox. Ultimately, \u003ci\u003eStratagem of the Corpse\u003c\/i\u003e is less a making sense of death and more a transcript of what occurred when death made sense of us, a reverse thanatology in which death delineates the variant forms of our encroachment, not so much death as seen by Baudrillard but Baudrillard as seen by death.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ships in 10 to 15 days","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47924901249182,"sku":"ING-9781839980718","price":39.78,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0400\/9043\/5742\/files\/9781839980718.jpg?v=1782955351","url":"https:\/\/classicbargains.com.au\/products\/9781839980718","provider":"Classic Bargains Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
