The project of writing a social history of literature is generally
held to have exhausted its potential. Yet the general practice of
literary studies still encompasses socio-historical issues like the
relationship between literary texts and their social environment,
studies on the distribution of literature, questions pertaining to
the historical and social status of authors and readers. The
articles in this volume essay a stock-taking of the (now
historical) paradigm 'social history of literature' and by engaging
critically with approaches from cultural studies and media theory
outline new concepts for literary studies 'after social history'.
