About the Book

Incorporating a diversity of approaches from a variety of disciplines, this book provides a major reassessment of the question of nihilism in modernity and interrogates this through the growing interest in angels and demons in contemporary philosophy. The collection examines the uncanny return of angelic and demonic principles in current cultural production and thinking and aims to show that the repression of thought about spiritual entities at the onset of modernity is linked to the appearance of a new form of evil that manifests itself through nihilism.

Table of Contents:
Introduction, Gary Banham and Charlie Blake; mourning Satan, Gary Banham; Kierkegaard's writing machines - epistemology of the demon, Joanna Hodge; the god of evil, Alphonso Lingis; the gravity of angels - space, time and the ecstasy of annihilation, Charlie Blake; interminable intensity - Nietzsche's demonic nihilism, Jill Marsden; "an angel of all fours" - inverts and their dogs, Diane Morgan; Deleuze and the threat of demonic nihilism, James Williams; spectropoesis and rhizomatics - learning to live with death and demons, Keith Ansell Pearson; Freud's spectres, Antony Easthope; unfamiliar haunts - the revenant ontology of Heidegger's "Der Speiegel" interview, Daniel Conway; the spiritual daylight of the present - Hegel, Blake and the advent of spirit, Howard Caygill; the contemporary city of angels, Graham Ward.
