J. Hillis Miller is undoubtedly one of the most important literary
critics of the past century. For well over five decades his work
has been at the forefront of theoretical and philosophical thinking
and writing. From his earliest work with Georges Poulet and the
so-called Geneva School, which introduced a generation of North
American critics to the concept of a phenomenological literary
hermeneutic, to a deconstructive rhetorical philology and an
ethically motivated textual analysis, Miller's readings have not
only reflected major movements in literary theory, they have also
created them. Surprisingly, Eamonn Dunne'sJ. Hillis Miller and the
Possibilities of Reading is the first book devoted exlusively to
examining Miller's work Dunne argues that an appreciation of Miller
is crucial to an informed understanding about the radical changes
occurring in critical thinking in the humanities in recent years.
This book, the first of its kind, will be a vital and enabling
avenue for further research into J. Hillis Miller's exemplary and
prolific output.
