A Manifesto for Literary Studies

Viac o knihe

Focusing on the significance of literary inquiry, Marjorie Garber's work emphasizes the joy of engaging with literature and the necessity of bold ideas in literary studies. She challenges conventional boundaries and advocates for addressing pressing intellectual questions, such as human nature and historical accuracy, through the lens of literary criticism. Garber argues that the future of literary studies lies in embracing risks rather than adhering to safe approaches, reviving the essential craft of language and its dynamic role in culture.
