Sjoerd van Tuinen is Associate Professor of Philosophy at Erasmus University, the Netherlands, and co-founder of the Erasmus Institute for Public Knowledge. His previous titles include: Deleuze and The Fold: A Critical Reader (2010), Speculative Art Histories (2017), Art History after Deleuze and Guattari (2017) and The Polemics of Ressentiment: Variations on Nietzsche (Bloomsbury, 2018).
Van Tuinen offers a highly engaging and original interpretation of mannerism that extends it from an art-historical context to broad domains of philosophy. This articulation of a mannerist philosophy establishes Van Tuinen as one of the major figures in contemporary thought. * Ronald Bogue, Distinguished Research Professor Emeritus of Comparative Literature, University of Georgia, USA *
