Reading Theory Now explores movements in critical thinking through
a host of radical theorists, and channels those movements through
the work of one of the most influential proponents of critical
interpretation in the world today, J. Hillis Miller. It enables its
readers to see how and why theoretical models of reading are of use
only in the practical event of reading literary and philosophical
texts, that the politics and poetics of interpretive paradigms are
constantly shifting, changing and evolving as present day
perspectives transform those traditions unalterably. it seeks to
invite its readers to challenge the concept of the paradigm, the
school, the movement, even the sequence, by presenting them with a
choice to read in their own way, to "dip" in and out of singular
events of interpretation from A to Z. In this respect Reading
Theory Now invites its audience to decide for him/herself where
they begin and end their own critical analyses. Reading Theory Now
also contains: *A Preface by J. Hillis Miller which comments on the
significance of reading as an event and the centrality of political
and ecological issues in his most recent work. *An Afterword by
Julian Wolfreys which tackles these issues in Miller's latest
books. *A select annotated bibliography which will help students
coming to Miller's work for the first time to find their own way
into his vast critical corpus.
