Revenge of the Aesthetic the Place of Literature in Theory Today
- Binding: Paperback
- Publisher: Univ of California Pr
- Publish date: 07/01/2000
In addition to providing a selection of distinguished critics writing at their best, this collection is valuable because it represents a variety of fields and perspectives not usually found together in one volume. Taken together, the essays are unified in urging the importance of seeing literature as a means of resisting the ideological closure and programmatic constraint characteristic of much theory today.
Michael Clark's introduction provides a concise, cogent history of major developments and trends in literary theory from World War II to the present, making the entire volume essential reading for students and scholars of literature, literary theory, and philosophy.
