Leicht vergilbt, sonst guter Zustand / Slightly yellowed, otherwise in good condition. - The Profession of Eighteenth-Century Literature brings together essays by many of today's leading critics of eighteenth-century literature in an effort to assess the present status of their field. Precisely because there is no longer a consensus about how literature should be read, studied, or taught, this volume represents an occasion for currently active scholars to consider their relationship to the academic past. The resulting essays interweave literary history with personal history. They offer reflections on some of the most influential scholars of the 1960s and on the origins of currently influential approaches to literature: new historicism, ideology, feminism, and cultural materialism and dialectic. Volume editor Leo Damrosch provides a postscript on the experience of developing a professional career. The prominent contributors, who have written their essays especially for this volume, are John Bender, Leo Braudy, Marshall Brown, William C. Dowling, William H. Epstein, Carole Fabricant, Donna Landry, Lawrence Lipking, Michael McKeon, David B. Morris, and John Richetti. ISBN 9780299133047 Sprache: Englisch Gewicht in Gramm: 293. Seller Inventory # 1200443
