This book demonstrates how Fredric Jameson's understanding of the
novel form has heavily influenced his work as a critical theorist.
It contends that Jameson's idiosyncratic engagements with the
literary canon have had a major impact on his theoretical
frameworks, particularly in his sense of historical change. The
book investigates Jameson's predominant literary interests in
chapters focusing on realism, modernism, postmodernism and genre
fiction. These readings provide fresh perspectives on Jameson's
career, ones that look beyond his most famous contributions to
cultural theory and interpretive practice. Through this work, the
book also rethinks the criticism that has surrounded Jameson, while
suggesting ways in which his literary interpretation remains useful
for contemporary reading practices.
