Leicht vergilbt, sonst sehr guter Zustand / Slightly yellowed, otherwise in very good condition. - In the years since Vietnam, North American scholars who engage in professional criticism interpreting texts and other cultural artifacts, questioning and formulating theoretical positions, and analyzing historical events have seen their authority in universities and in society at large increasingly undermined. The reasons, Jim Merod says, can be looked at: the retrenched but still uncertain status of the humanities in the contemporary university, the troubled state of intellectual exchange in a militarized economy, and the self-consciously marginal professional identity of the academic. In this penetrating and thought-provoking book, Merod examines the role of the literary critic in todays highly integrated but highly specialized consumer society, a society in which professional identities become more fragmented as bodies of expert knowledge grow more widely divergent.
