This book establishes an argument for deeper attention to the
aesthetic qualities of literature, to the question of the relation
between the aesthetic and more immediate, practical, and urgent
social and political matters. It attempts to establish the
intrinsic value of the aesthetic at the same time as it
demonstrates that focus on the aesthetic does not preclude
attention of the urgent questions with which works of art
consistently engaged. It argues that attention to the aesthetic
does not diminish attention to these larger issues, but in effect
increases the power both of art and criticism to engage them
fruitfully.
