The Essential Criminology Reader

Contemporary Postcolonial Theory A Reader

Contemporary Postcolonial Theory A Reader

There is a crisis in contemporary postcolonial theory: while an enormous body of challenging research has been produced under its auspices severely critical questions about the validity and usefulness of this theory have also been raised. This Reader is positioned at the juncture where it can address these contestations. It makes available some of the 'classics' of the field; engages with the issues raised by contemporary practitioners; but also offers several of the arguments that strongly critique postcolonial theory. Although postcolonial theory purports to be inter-disciplinary and frequently anti-foundationalist traces of disciplinary formations and linearity have continued to haunt its articulations. This Reader on the other hand offers a uniquely inter-disciplinary mapping. It is concerned with three main areas: definitional problems and contests including the current challenges to postcolonial theory; the 'disciplining of knowledge' where the multiple resonances of the word 'disciplining' are all engaged; and the location of practice where the relations between intellectual practice and historical conditions are explored. Finally since the guiding principle of this Reader is simultaneous attention to the enabling and constraining mechanisms of historical realities and institutional practices the commentary problematizes the writing of histories the formations of canons and indeed the production of Readers. | Contemporary Postcolonial Theory A Reader

Modern Criticism and Theory A Reader

Modern Criticism and Theory A Reader

This third edition of Modern Criticism and Theory represents a major expansion on its previous incarnations with some twenty five new pieces or essays included. This expansion has two principal purposes. Firstly in keeping with the collection’s aim to reflect contemporary preoccupations the reader has expanded forward to include such newly emergent considerations as ecocriticism and post-theory. Secondly with the aim of presenting as broad an account of modern theory as possible the reader expands backwards to to take in exemplary pieces by formative writers and thinkers of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries such as Marx Freud and Virginia Woolf. . This radical expansion of content is prefaced by a wide-ranging introduction which provides a rationale for the collection and demonstrates how connections can be made between competing theories and critical schools. The purpose of the collection remains that of introducing the reader to the guiding concepts of contemporary literary and cultural debate. It does so by presenting substantial extracts from seminal thinkers and surrounding them with the contextual materials necessary to a full understanding. Each selection has a headnote which gives biographical details of the author and provides suggestions for further reading and footnotes that help explain difficult references. The collection is ordered both historically and thematically and readers are encouraged to draw for themselves connections between essays and theories. Modern Criticism and Theory has long been regarded as a necessary collection. Now revised for the twenty first century it goes further and provides students and the general reader with a wide-ranging survey of the complex landscape of modern theory and a critical assessment of the way we think – and live – in the world today. | Modern Criticism and Theory A Reader
