Jamin Pelkey, Toronto Metropolitan University, Canada, author Semiotics of X, Co-Editor-in-Chief Semiotica "In this rich and scholarly work, Justin Bonanno demonstrates deep learning by comparatively engaging a wide range of topics and scholars. He powerfully shows how Walker Percy's semiotic theory provides invaluable resources for critiquing nominalism and for leading the way to a robust philosophical realism. For anyone interested in grasping Percy's contributions to philosophy and approach toward a meaningful life, this is must read material." Corey Anton, Grand Valley State University, USA In this book, Justin N. Bonanno builds off of the recent philosophical work on Walker Percys writings. While it is valuable to appreciate Percy as a novelist, Bonanno approaches Percy from the perspective of Continental philosophy and the rhetorical tradition. Unpacking the works of several key authors that influenced Percy (e.g. Sartre and Heidegger), Bonanno offers a fresh philosophical account of Percy's ideas concerning the relationship between symbols and existence. In particular, he focuses on how Percys ideas emerge from the thought of Ernst Cassirer, Susanne Langer, Jacques Maritain, Jean-Paul Sartre, Gabriel Marcel, Martin Heidegger, Viktor Shklovsky, Sren Kierkegaard, and St. Thomas Aquinas. Justin N. Bonanno holds a PhD in rhetoric from Duquesne University, USA. He teaches at Ave Maria University, USA. 001476140 588__ $$aDescription based on online resource; title from digital title page (viewed on August 31, 2023). 001476140 60010 $$aPercy, Walker,$$d1916-1990$$xPhilosophy. 001476140 60010 $$aPercy, Walker,$$d1916-1990$$xCriticism and interpretation. 001476140 650_0 $$aContinental philosophy. 001476140 650_0 $$aLiterature$$xPhilosophy. 001476140 650_6 $$aPhilosophie continentale. 001476140 651_0 $$aAmerica$$xLiteratures. 001476140 651_6 $$aAmérique$$xLittératures. 001476140 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001476140 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aBONANNO, JUSTIN N.$$tWALKER PERCY AND THE CRISIS OF MEANING.$$d[Place of publication not identified] : PALGRAVE MACMILLAN, 2023$$z3031370228$$w(OCoLC)1381443487 001476140 852__ $$bebk 001476140 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-031-37023-6$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001476140 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1476140$$pGLOBAL_SET 001476140 980__ $$aBIB 001476140 980__ $$aEBOOK 001476140 982__ $$aEbook 001476140 983__ $$aOnline 001476140 994__ $$a92$$bISE
