To gain a deeper understanding of the literary movement that has
dominated recent Anglo-American literary criticism, The Pursuit of
Signs is a must. In a world increasingly mediated, it offers
insights into our ways of consuming texts that are both brilliant
and bold. Dancing through semiotics, reader-response criticism, the
value of the apostrophe and much more, Jonathan Culler opens up for
every reader the closed world of literary criticism. Its impact on
first publication, in 1981, was immense; now, as Mieke Bal notes,
'the book has the same urgency and acuity that it had then', though
today it has even wider implications: 'with the interdisciplinary
turn taking hold, literary theory itself, through this book,
becomes a much more widespread tool for cultural analysis'.
