The three sections of the book reflect the most vibrant fields of research in Beckett studies today: Intertextuality and Theory, Philosophy and Theory and Textual Genesis, Contextual Genesis and Language.

Moreover, the recent development of selective and non selective inhibitors of MMPs give new insights in the relationship between activation of inflammatory cells and tissue remodelling and advise new therapeutics possibilities to the treatment of inflammatory disease. The volume has an international authorship and is written by leading experts in the field.
Islam and the West
In the spring of 2003, Jacques Derrida sat down for a public debate in Paris with Algerian intellectual Mustapha Chérif. The eminent philosopher arrived at the event directly from the hospital where he had just been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, the illness that would take his life just over a year later.

The Trial of Giordano Bruno
In 1600, Giordano Bruno, one of the leading intellectuals of the Renaissance, was burned at the stake on the charge of heresy by the Roman Inquisition. He is remembered primarily for his cosmological theories, particularly that the universe was infinite with the Earth not being at its centre. Today, he has become a symbol of the struggle for religious and philosophical tolerance. The Trial of Giordano Bruno, originally published in Italian in 2018, provides English audiences with a complete and updated reconstruction of the inquisitorial trial by analysing the accusations, witnesses, and legal proceedings in detail. The author also gives a detailed profile of Bruno as well as the body which arrested and accused him – the Inquisition. This book will appeal to all those interested in the life and death of Giordano Bruno, as well as those interested in Early Modern legal proceedings, the Roman Inquisition, and the history of religious and philosophical tolerance.
