This book records a major critic s three decades of thinking about the
connection between literature and the conditions of people s lives
—
that is,
politics. A preference for impurity and a search for how to analyze and
explain it are guiding threads in this book as its chapters pursue the complex
entanglements of culture, politics, and society from which great literature
arises. At its core is the nineteenth-century novel, but it addresses a broader
range of writers as well, in a textured, contoured, discontinuous history.
The chapters stand out for a rare combination. They practice both
an intensive, close reading that does not demand unity as its goal and an
attention to literature as a social institution, a source of values that are often
created in its later reception rather than given at the outset. When addressings
canonical writers
—
Shakespeare, Dickens, Twain, Keats, Melville, George
Eliot, Flaubert, Baudelaire, and Ralph Ellison—the author never forgets
thflÉt
many of their texts, even Shakespeare s plays, were in their own time judged
to be popular, commercial, minor, or even trashy. In drawing on these works
ai
resources in politically charged arguments about value, the author pays close
attention to the processes of posterity that validated these authors greatness.
Participating in as well as analyzing that work of critical creativity, this vol¬
ume is rich with important insights for all readers and teachers of literature.
