"A key work in contemporary media theory, this study is a step
toward readjusting the question of the media in today's debates.
Kittler's beland of Heideggerian history of Being and Neitzschean
genealogy is meticulously retraced. And - even more importantly -
Winthrop-Young addresses a fascination with technology, the beloves
twentieth-century enemy of philosophy and the humanities."
Rudiger Campe, Yale University
"Witty, concise and insightful, Kittler and the Media
covers the three major phases of Kittler's career, including
Kittler's recent work on the Greek alphabet, and traces connecting
threads through the different phases. Deeply thought through
Kittler and the Media covers essential points of media
theory in its German and international contexts."
Katherine Hayles, Duke University
