Review:
-...we have here a treasury of essays whose authors, instead of sitting pat on some theoretical position, allow the text to 'move them differently', both in the usual sense and in the literal one of taking the text, with its power to elicit and chasten response, as a fixed point against which to measure change in their own relationship to it, and as a fulcrum against which to push forward their own development as critics. There is a general murmur of ice breaking and water running.- (Bernard Harrison, E.E. Ericksen Professor of Philosophy, The University of Utah)
