5.0 out of 5 stars
From the Cold War to the Culture Wars,
By "elljwb" (The Lion City) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Cold War Criticism and the Politics of Skepticism (Odeon) (Paperback)
This book is a fine exploration of the influence the cold war has had on literary criticism during the past fifty years. Siebers shows how apparent opposites (New Critics and Paul de Man, say) are strange bedfellows in that they all avoid genuine political engagements by insulating themselves with skepticism. Real politics, Siebers shows in his chapter on Hannah Arendt, is defined by costs. Well written, fun to read. This book hasn't gotten nearly the attention it deserves.
