Poststructuralism challenges traditional ways of thinking about the relations between human beings, culture, and the world. Language and meaning are reappraised, and with them assumptions about what it is possible for us to know. Poststructuralism resists certainties and offers ways to consider our place in the world that compete with conventional explanations. In this Very Short Introduction, Catherine Belsey examines key figures such as Roland Barthes, Jacques Derrida, Michel Foucault, Julia Kristeva, Gilles Deleuze, and Sarah Kofman, drawing examples from sources as diverse as M. C. Escher, politics, Shakespeare, climate change, love, primatology, and pandemics
