Literature as History presents a selection of specially
commissioned essays by a range of key contemporary thinkers on the
interdisciplinary study of literature and history. The unifying
theme is the interrelationship between literary / cultural
production and its historical moment. The essays in the collection
are astute and exciting in terms of their engagement with
ever-changing developments in critical and theoretical practice
while retaining an invaluable focus on familiar and engaging texts
and authors. The contributors offer a reappraisal of the nature of
literary studies today, looking back over the thirty-five years of
Peter Widdowson's career - a career which has coincided with the
emergence of, challenges to, and reformulations of critical theory
- and ask what the future holds, particularly for the
interdisciplinary ways of working which Widdowson pioneered.
Bringing together distinguished scholars in the interdisciplinary
study of English and History, it seizes the opportunity to take
stock of the current field of literary studies and to ask searching
questions about its future development.
