New online piece in n+1: “The Prequel Boom”

n+1 has published a web piece of mine entitled “The Prequel Boom,” where I explore the question of why studios keep making prequels when fans tend to hate them so much.

Adam Kotsko is on the faculty of the Shimer Great Books School at North Central College, where he teaches widely in the humanities and social sciences. His research focuses on political theology, continental philosophy, and the history of Christian thought. He is the author, most recently, of What Is Theology? Christian Thought and Contemporary Life, a collection of essays on the perils and promise of modernity’s theological legacy, and Late Star Trek: The Final Frontier in the Franchise Era, a study of the iconic science fiction franchise’s attempts to reinvent itself in the 21st century.
