Summary:"Distinguished literary and film theorists convene to engage with Garrett Stewart’s twenty books of inter-medial analysis, shelved across several disciplines, in a collection of essays as multifaceted and resonant as Stewart's own writing. Critical luminaries from the fields of literary and film studies assess the methods and scope of Garrett Stewart’s career-long work across the fields of literary history and poetics, cinema and media studies.

Through it all, under the rubric of what Stewart calls "narratography," there is a continual return to microplots of fictional phrasing, from Victorian novels to post-millennial American fiction. Given Stewart’s steadily tuned ear for the play of vocal enunciation, his interests arc in this way from a performative phonetics of print text to a study of star-singing on screen. Assorted essays variously analyze directly, or extrapolate from, Stewart’s evolving methodology: a "signature" analytic intensity tested in its yield on interpretive challenges from literary prose and art history through cinema theory and screen stardom [...]."
