First Published in 2002. Amongst a time of rapid and radical social
change, New Accents is a positive response to change, with each
volume seeking to encourage rather than resist the process of
change, to stretch rather than reinforce boundaries that currently
define literature and its academic study. All the essays collected
here deal in their different ways with 'popular fictions', but they
were all, also, first published in the journal Literature and
History. In that sense, then, they are quite literally 'essays in
literature and history'.
First Published in 2002. Modes and categories inherited from the
past no longer seem to fit the reality experienced by a new
generation. 'New Accents' is intended as a positive response to the
initiative offered by such a situation. Each volume in the series
will seek to encourage rather than resist the process of change, to
stretch rather than reinforce the boundaries that currently define
literature and its academic study. This selection of essays is an
attempt to open up some of the as yet unsurveyed territory of
English Studies and to introduce a new, more positive tone and
greater range of voices to discussions of the future of the
subject.
