To name but a few highlights, 2007 sees the launch of a brand new strand in 20th Century and Contemporary literature from the Routledge Guides to Literature series (pp. 3-4). In Shakespeare & Renaissance studies we continue to publish challenging titles, including Arthur F. Kinney’s, Shakespeare & Cognition (p.20), a new title in the Accents on Shakespeare series, Presentist Shakespeares, edited by Hugh Grady and Terence Hawkes (p.18) and the much anticipated 3rd volume of Alternative Shakespeares, edited by Diana E. Henderson (p.19). In children’s literature Jack Zipes has produced one of his best works to date (which is saying something) in the brand new Why Fairy Tales Stick (p.30). And finally, The New Critical Idiom and Routledge Critical Thinkers series continue to flourish on pp. 5-7. We hope you find plenty within to stimulate, challenge and inspire…

Meter and Meaning

‘An extremely lucid, sane and broad-church approach to the nuts and bolts of poetry.’ – Robert Potts, The Guardian This comprehensive guide demystifies the world of poetry, exploring poetic forms and traditions which can at first seem bewildering.

Drawing on examples ranging from Chaucer to children’s rhymes, Cole Porter to Carol Ann Duffy, and from around the English-speaking world, it looks at issues including: •how technical aspects such as rhythm and measures work •how different tones of voice affect a poem •how poetic language relates to everyday language •how different types of poetry work, from sonnets to free verse

Metaphor

Humanism

David Punter, University of Bristol, UK

Tony Davies, University of Birmingham, UK

Metaphor is a central concept in literary studies, but it is also prevalent in everyday language and speech. Recent literary theories such as postmodernism and deconstruction have transformed the study of the text and revolutionized our thinking about metaphor.

Definitions of humanism have evolved throughout the centuries as the term has been adopted for a variety of purposes - literary, cultural and political - and reactions against humanism have contributed to movements such as postmodernism and anti-humanism. Tony Davies offers a clear introduction to the many uses of this influential yet complex concept and this second edition extends his discussion to include: •a comprehensive history of the development of the term and its influences •theories of post-humanism, cybernetics and artificial intelligence •implications of concepts of humanism and posthumanism on political and religious activism •discussion of the key figures in humanist debate from Erasmus and Milton to Chomsky, Heidegger and Foucault •a new glossary and further reading section. Offering clear explanations and poignant discussions, this volume is essential reading for anyone approaching the study of humanism, post-humanism or critical theory.

In this fascinating volume, David Punter: •establishes the classical background of metaphor from its philosophical roots to the religious and political tradition of metaphor in the East •relates metaphor to the public realms of culture and politics, and the way in which these influence the literary •examines metaphor in relation to literary theory, philosophy, psychoanalysis and postcolonial studies •illustrates his argument with specific examples from western and eastern literature and poetry. This comprehensive and engaging book emphasizes the significance of metaphor to literary studies, as well as its relevance to cultural studies, linguistics and philosophy.

Mimesis Matthew Potolsky, University of Utah, USA A topic that has become increasingly central to the study of art, performance and literature, the term mimesis has long been used to refer to the relationship between an image and its ‘real’ original. However, recent theorists have extended the concept, highlighting new perspectives on key concerns, such as the nature of identity. Matthew Potolsky presents a clear introduction to this potentially daunting concept, examining: •the foundations of mimetic theory in ancient philosophy, from Plato to Aristotle •three key versions of mimesis: imitatio or rhetorical imitation, theatre and theatricality, and artistic realism •the position of mimesis in modern theories of identity and culture, through theorists such as Freud, Lacan, Girard and Baudrillard •the possible future of mimetic theory in the concept of ‘memes’, which connects evolutionary biology and theories of cultural reproduction. A multidisciplinary study of a term rapidly returning to the forefront of contemporary theory, Mimesis is a welcome guide for readers in such fields as literature, performance and cultural studies.

Performativity

Rhetoric

Modernism

James Loxley, University of Edinburgh, UK

Jennifer Richards, University of Newcastle, UK

Peter Childs, Univeristy of Gloucestershire, UK

Do our writings and our utterances reflect or describe our world, or do they intervene in it? Do they, perhaps, help to make it? If so, how? Within what limits, and with what implications?

The term ‘rhetoric’ describes the effective use of language, usually to persuade or influence. Frequently set up in opposition to ‘truth’ or ‘plain speech’, it has attracted much critical debate from ancient philosophy to current literary theory.

The modernist movement radically transformed the late nineteenth- and early twentieth-century literary establishment, and its effects are still felt today. Modernism introduces and analyzes what amounted to nothing less than a literary and cultural revolution. In this fully updated and revised second edition, charting the movement in its global and local contexts, Peter Childs: •details the origins of the modernist movement and the influence of thinkers such as Darwin, Marx, Freud, Nietzsche, Saussure and Einstein •explores the radical changes which occurred in the literature, drama, art and film of the period •traces ‘modernism at work’ in writings by a range of key literary figures including James Joyce, Virginia Woolf, Samuel Beckett, Jean Rhys, Wilson Harris, Kamau Brathwaite, Gertrude Stein, Wallace Stevens and many others •reflects upon the shift from modernism to postmodernism. At once accessible and critically informed, Modernism guides readers from first steps in the field to an advanced understanding of one of the most important cultural movements of the last centuries. April 2007: 198x129: 256pp Hb: 0-415-41544-6 ISBN13: 978-0-415-41544-6: US $90.00 Pb: 0-415-41546-2 ISBN13: 978-0-415-41546-0: US $19.95

Contemporary theorists have considered the ways in which the languages we speak might be ‘performative’ in just this way, and their thinking on the topic has had an important impact on a broad range of academic disciplines.

Examining both the practice and theory of this controversial concept, Jennifer Richards looks at: •historical and contemporary definitions of the term ‘rhetoric’

In this accessible introduction to a sometimes complex field, James Loxley:

•uses of rhetoric in literature, by authors such as William Shakespeare, Mary Shelley and James Joyce

•offers a concise and original account of critical debates around the idea of performativity

•classical traditions of rhetoric, as seen in the work of Plato, Aristotle and Cicero

•traces the history of the concept through the work of such influential theorists as J.L. Austin, John Searle, Stanley Fish, Jacques Derrida, Paul de Man and Judith Butler

•the rebirth of rhetoric in the Renaissance and its return to the contemporary academy through composition and literature courses

•examines the implications of performativity for fields such as literary and cultural theory, philosophy, performance studies, and the theory of gender and sexuality •emphasizes the political and ethical implications that its most important theorists have drawn from the notion of performativity •suggests ways in which major debates around the topic have obscured its alternative interpretations and uses. For students trying to make sense of performativity and related concepts such as the speech act, ‘ordinary language’ and iterability, and for those seeking to understand the place of these ideas in contemporary performance theory, this clear guide will prove indispensable. Performativity offers not only a path through challenging critical terrain, but a new understanding of just what is at stake in the exploration of this field.

The American theorists Henry James, Lionel Trilling and Wayne C. Booth have revolutionized our understanding of narrative and have each championed the novel as an art form. Concepts from their work have become part of the fabric of novel criticism today, influencing theorists, authors and readers alike. Emphasizing the crucial relationship between the works of these three critics, Peter Rawlings explores their understanding of the novel form, and investigates their ideas on: •realism and representation •authors and narration •point of view and centres of consciousness •readers, reading and interpretation •moral intelligence.

Of Literature and Knowledge

The Total Work of Art

Explorations in Narrative Thought Experiments, Evolution and Game Theory

Matthew Smith, Boston University, USA

Peter Swirski, University of Hong Kong Framed by the theory of evolution, this colourful and engaging volume presents a new understanding of the mechanisms by which we transfer information from narrative make-believe to real life. Ranging across game theory and philosophy of science, as well as poetics and aesthetics, Peter Swirski explains how literary fictions perform as a systematic tool of enquiry, driven by thought experiments. Crucially, he argues for a continuum between the cognitive tools employed by scientists, philosophers and scholars or writers of fiction. The result is a provocative study of our talent and propensity for creating imaginary worlds, different from the world we know yet invaluable to our understanding of it. Of Literature and Knowledge is a noteworthy challenge to contemporary critical theory, arguing that by bridging the gap between literature and science we might not only reinvigorate literary studies but, above all, further our understanding of literature.

A Theory of Adaptation Linda Hutcheon, University of Toronto, Canada Renowned literary scholar Linda Hutcheon explores the ubiquity of adaptations in all their various media incarnations and challenges their constant critical denigration. Adaptation, Hutcheon argues, has always been a central mode of the story-telling imagination and deserves to be studied in all its breadth and range as both a process (of creation and reception) and a product unto its own. Persuasive and illuminating, A Theory of Adaptation is a bold rethinking of how adaptation works across all media and genres that may put an end to the age-old question of whether the book was better than the movie, or the opera, or the theme park. July 2006: 234x156: 232pp Hb: 0-415-96794-5 ISBN13: 978-0-415-96794-5: US $95.00 Pb: 0-415-96795-3 ISBN13: 978-0-415-96795-2: US $22.95

This thought-provoking book challenges traditional notions of literary criticism, arguing that all attempts by writers, critics and literary theorists to define the language of literature have involved self-contradiction. Through examination of key moments in literary history, Derek Attridge demonstrates that such contradictions in accounts of literary language are embedded in our cultural concept of ‘literature’ and asserts that in order to appreciate the forces that determine the limits of literary language, we must look beyond the realm of the ‘literary’ and embrace the wider political and social sphere. Re-issued as a result of sustained critical interest in the book, this edition includes a new preface by the author. 2004: 234x156: 280pp Hb: 0-415-34057-8 ISBN13: 978-0-415-34057-1: US $120.00 Pb: 0-415-34058-6 ISBN13: 978-0-415-34058-8: US $34.95

The Singularity of Literature Derek Attridge, University of York, UK

WINNER of the ESSE Literature Book Award 2006

‘Attridge builds a powerful account of literature and an original account of the relation of literature to ethics. Written accessibly and without jargon, this book will excite old and new readers alike.’ – Simon Critchley, New School University, New York, and University of Essex, UK ‘[A] singular achievement in pushing the challenge of literature to the top of the agenda and opening the objectives of the discipline to debate.’ – Kiernan Ryan, Literature and Poetry Literature and the literary have proved singularly resistant to definition. Derek Attridge argues that such resistance represents not a dead end, but a crucial starting point from which to explore a new the power and practices of Western art. In this lively, original volume, the author: •considers the implications of regarding the literary work as an innovative cultural event, both in its time and for later generations •provides a rich new vocabulary for discussions of literature, rethinking such terms as invention, singularity, otherness, alterity, performance and form •returns literature to the realm of ethics, and argues the ethical importance of the literary institution to a culture •demonstrates how a new understanding of the literary might be put to work in a ‘responsible’ creative mode of reading. The Singularity of Literature is not only a major contribution to the theory of literature, but also a celebration of the extraordinary pleasure of the literary, for reader, writer, student or critic. 2004: 198x129: 192pp Hb: 0-415-33592-2 ISBN13: 978-0-415-33592-8: US $90.00 Pb: 0-415-33593-0 ISBN13: 978-0-415-33593-5: US $24.95

The Character of Criticism Geoffrey Galt Harpham The Character of Criticism represents not just a snapshot of contemporary criticism but a fresh approach to criticism itself that clarifies the stakes involved for writers and readers of criticism alike. It does so not by making difficult thinking easy but by making it stranger—more idiosyncratic, exotic, and singular.

Alan Sinfield, University of Sussex, Brighton, UK ‘... a lively, intelligent and important book.’ – Simon Shepherd, University of Nottingham, UK Following a first edition that generated widespread debate, Cultural Politics - Queer Reading is a bold study of the future of critical theory and the role of gender, ethnicity and cultures within academic literary studies.

Barry Stocker’s clear and helpful introductions set each reading in context, making the volume an ideal companion for those coming to Derrida’s writings for the first time.

An illuminating introduction to the second edition revisits the book’s agenda for a new form of cultural critique and a truly political lesbian and gay studies. Sinfield renews his call for an ‘Englit’ that incorporates ongoing study of the cultures of ethnicity, gender and sexuality. Challenging the assumptions that have shaped the study of English literature, Sinfield engages provocatively with topics such as the gendering of literary culture, the sexual politics of psychoanalysis during the Cold War and the history of cultural materialism. He discusses such key figures as William Shakespeare, Christopher Marlowe, Walt Whitman, Arthur Miller, Holly Hughes, Audre Lorde and Jeanette Winterson. This influential investigation of the principles and practice that may form dissident reading, forms compelling argument for intellectual allegiances beyond the academy.

Language and History in Adorno’s Notes to Literature Ulrich Plass, Wesleyan University, USA Language and History in Theodor W. Adorno’s Notes to Literature explores Adorno’s essays on literature as an independent contribution to his aesthetics with an emphasis on his theory and practice of literary interpretation. Essential to Adorno’s essays is his unorthodox treatment of language and history and his elaboration of the links between the two. One of Adorno’s major but often-neglected claims is that truth is relative to its historical medium, language. This book puts forth the claim that Adorno’s essays on literature are of central relevance for an understanding of his aesthetics because they challenge the conceptual limitations of philosophical discourse.

Colonialism/Postcolonialism Ania Loomba, University of Pennsylvania, USA Series: The New Critical Idiom

‘Now in its second edition, The PostColonial Studies Reader ... is cleary designed as an introduction to the major issues in the field, and therein lies its strength.’ – Dipli Saikia, THES The essential introduction to the most important texts in post-colonial theory and criticism, this second edition has been thoroughly revised and updated to include 121 extracts from key works in the field. Leading, as well as lesser known figures in the fields of writing, theory and criticism contribute to this inspiring body of work that includes sections on nationalism, hybridity, diaspora and globalization.

Covering more debates, topics and critics than any comparable book in its field, The Post-Colonial Studies Reader is the ideal starting point for students and issues a potent challenge to the ways in which we think and write about literature and culture. 2005: 246x174: 544pp Hb: 0-415-34564-2 ISBN13: 978-0-415-34564-4: US $120.00 Pb: 0-415-34565-0 ISBN13: 978-0-415-34565-1: US $35.95

Praise for the second edition: ‘Colonialism/Postcolonialism is both a crystal-clear and authoritative introduction to the field and a cogentlyargued defence of the field’s radical potential. It’s exactly the sort of book teachers want their students to read.’ – Peter Hulme, University of Essex, UK

‘Loomba is a keen and canny critic of evershifting geopolitical realities, and Colonialism/Postcolonialism remains a primer for the academic and common reader alike.’ – Antoinette Burton, University of Illinois, USA ‘It is rare to come across a book that can engage both student and specialist. Loomba simultaneously maps a field and contributes provocatively to key debates within it.’ – Priyamvada Gopal, Cambridge University ‘Distrustful of established and selfperpetuating assumptions, foci and canonical texts which threaten to fossilize postcolonial studies as a discipline, Loomba’s magisterial study raises many crucial issues pertaining to social structure and identity.’ – Kelwyn Sole, University of Cape Town ‘Lucid and incisive this is a wonderful introduction to the contentious yet vibrant field of post-colonial studies. With consummate ease Loomba maps the field, unravels the many strands of the debate and provides a considered critique.’ – Neeladri Bhattacharya, Jawaharlal Nehru University, India Praise for the first edition: ‘...Ania Loomba’s is clearly the best exposition on [postcolonialism] so far...’ – Interventions ‘Loomba’s text operates well both as a healthy sceptical introduction to the intellectual and historical context of the field and as a useful teaching textbook.’ – Textual Practice ‘Probably one of the most illustratively lucid, fair-minded and cogent discussions of the key issues involved in postcolonial textual studies to have appeared to date – indispensable for many who are new to this field.’ – Wasafiri

‘Benita Parry’s challenging essays form part of a vital critical legacy that is able to avoid the pitfalls of hermeneutic over-simplification in the hope of transcending the institutions and values of capitalism.’ – Wasafiri A powerful selection of essays by one of the most important critics in postcolonial studies, arguing for practices of reading and criticism fully attentive to historical circumstances and socio-material conditions. 2004: 234x156: 256pp Hb: 0-415-33599-X ISBN13: 978-0-415-33599-7: US $110.00 Pb: 0-415-33600-7 ISBN13: 978-0-415-33600-0: US $34.95

Minoli Salgado, University of Sussex, UK

Terry Collits, La Trobe Univeristy, Australia

Literature of the Indian Diaspora

Focusing on ways in which cultural nationalism has influenced both the production and critical reception of texts, Salgado presents a detailed analysis of eight leading Sri Lankan writers - Michael Ondaatje, Romesh Gunasekera, Shyam Selvadurai, A. Sivanandan, Jean Arasanayagam, Carl Muller, James Goonewardene and Punyakante Wijenaike - to rigorously challenge the theoretical, cultural and political assumptions that pit ‘insider’ against ‘outsider’, ‘resident’ against ‘migrant’ and the ‘authentic’ against the ‘alien’. By interrogating the discourses of territoriality and boundary marking that have come into prominence since the start of the civil war, Salgado works to define a more nuanced and sensitive critical framework that actively reclaims marginalized voices and draws upon recent studies in migration and the diaspora to reconfigure the Sri Lankan critical terrain.

Vijay Mishra, Murdoch University, Australia The Literature of the Indian Diaspora: Theorizing the Diasporic Imaginary constitutes a major study of the literature and other cultural texts of the Indian diaspora. It is also an important contribution to diaspora theory in general. Examining both the ‘old’ Indian diaspora of early capitalism, following the abolition of slavery, and the ‘new’ diaspora linked to movements of late capital, Mishra argues that a full understanding of the Indian diaspora can only be achieved if attention is paid to the particular locations of both the ‘old’ and the ‘new’ in nation states. Applying a theoretical framework based on trauma, mourning/impossible mourning, spectres, identity, travel, translation, and recognition, Mishra uses the term ‘imaginary’ to refer to any ethnic enclave in a nation-state that defines itself, consciously or unconsciously, as a group in displacement. He examines the works of key writers, many now based across the globe in Canada, Australia, America and the UK, - V.S. Naipaul, Salman Rushdie, M.G. Vassanji, Shani Mootoo, Bharati Mukherjee, David Dabydeen, Rohinton Mistry and Hanif Kureishi, among them - to show how they exemplify both the diasporic imaginary and the respective traumas of the ‘old’ and ‘new’ Indian diasporas.

of the 2006 NSW Prize for Literary Scholarship.

The work of Joseph Conrad has been read so disparately that it is tempting to talk of many different Conrads. One lasting impression however, is that his colonial novels, which record encounters between Europe and Europe’s ‘Other’, are highly significant for the field of post-colonial studies. Drawing on many years of research and a rich body of criticism, Postcolonial Conrad not only presents fresh readings of his novels of imperialism, but also maps and analyzes the interpretative tradition they have generated. Terry Collits first examines the reception of the author’s work in terms of the history of ideas, literary criticism, traditions of ‘Englishness’, Marxism and post-colonialism, before re-reading Heart of Darkness, Lord Jim, Nostromo and Victory in greater depth. 2005: 234x156 Hb: 0-415-35575-3 ISBN13: 978-0-415-35575-9: US $100.00

Literary Radicalism in India Gender, Nation and the Transition to Independence Priyamvada Gopal, University of Cambridge, UK This book situates postcolonial Indian literature in relation to the hugely influential radical literary movements initiated by the Progressive Writers Association and the Indian People’s Theatre Association.

In particular, she examines how contemporary writers from Hawai’i, Samoa, and Aotearoa/New Zealand remember, re-tell, and deploy this violent history in their work. As Pacific peoples negotiate their paths towards sovereignty and chart their postcolonial futures, these writers play an invaluable role in invoking and commenting upon the various uses of the histories of colonial resistance, allowing themselves and their readers to imagine new futures by exorcising the past.

POSTCOLONIAL STUDIES

Writing Across Worlds

NEW

Contemporary Writers Talk

Twentieth-Century Caribbean Literature

Edited by Susheila Nasta, Open University, UK

Critical Moments in Anglophone Literary History

Relocating Modernization and Technology

‘Writing Across Worlds draws together some of contemporary literature’s most perspicuous voices. It allows the reader the delight of an extended interaction with writers almost unmediated by critics.’ – The Times Higher Education Supplement

Alison Donnell, Nottingham Trent University, UK

‘Writing Across Worlds: Contemporary Writers Talk is a delight for academicians and even for bibliophiles.’ – World Literature Today Writing Across Worlds brings together a selection of interviews with major international writers previously featured in the pages of the magazine, Wasifiri. Conducted by a wide constituency of distinguished critics, writers and journalists, the interviews offer a unique insight into the views and work of a remarkable array of acclaimed authors. They also chart a slow but certain cultural shift: those once seen as ‘other’ have not only won many of the establishment’s most revered literary prizes but have also become central figures in contemporary literature, writing across and into all our real and imagined worlds. With an introductory comment by Susheila Nasta, editor of Wasafiri, this collection is essential reading for all those interested in contemporary literature. Authors interviewed include: Chinua Achebe, Ama Ata Aidoo, Monica Ali, Amit Chaudhuri, David Dabydeen, Bernadine Evaristo, Maggie Gee, Lorna Goodison, Nadine Gordimer, Abdulrazak Gurnah, Wilson Harris, Keri Hulme, Kazuo Ishiguro, Jackie Kay, Jamaica Kincaid, Maxine Hong Kingston, George Lamming, Rohinton Mistry, V.S.

The Routledge Reader in Caribbean Literature

‘This book will extend the archive of Caribbean texts in challenging and exciting ways, and is likely to initiate more generous and promiscuous readings of Caribbean writings, as well as making a valuable contribution to debates about the local and the global which are so central to postcolonial studies.’ – Denise deCaires Narain, University of Sussex, UK ‘It amounts to nothing less than a radical challenge to the canon of Caribbean literature and its repressions. It is the only comprehensive sketch of all the major blindspots of Caribbean literary history and criticism, identifying and correcting not only the exclusions of nationalist canons, but also of post-nationalist and feminist ones. Donnell thus puts into critical circulation a rich, unruly, and diverse body of literature.’ – Shalini Puri, University of Pitsburgh, USA Focusing on Anglophone or Anglocreole writings from across the twentieth century, Alison Donnell asks what it is that we read when we approach ‘Caribbean Literature’, how it is that we read it and what critical, ideological and historical pressures may have influenced our choices and approaches. In particular, the book: •addresses the exclusions that have resulted from the construction of a Caribbean canon •rethinks the dominant paradigms of Caribbean literary criticism, which have brought issues of anticolonialism and nationalism, migration and diaspora, ‘double-colonized’ women, and the marginalization of sexuality and homosexuality to the foreground •seeks to put new issues and writings into critical circulation by exploring lesser-known authors and texts, including Indian Caribbean women’s writings and Caribbean queer writings.

Beyond the Black Atlantic Edited by Walter Goebel, University of Stuttgart, Germany and Saskia Schabio, University of Stuttgart, Germany Debates about the ‘Black Atlantic’ have alerted us to an experience of modernization that diverges from the dominant Western narratives of globalization and technological progress. This outstanding volume expands the concept of the Black Atlantic by reaching beyond the usual AfricanAmerican focus of the field, presenting fresh perspectives on postcolonial experiences of technology and modernization. A team of renowned contributors come together in this volume in order to: •redefine and expand ideas of Black Atlantic •challenge unified concepts of modernization from a postcolonial perspective •question fashionable concepts of the transnational by returning to the local and the national •offer new approaches to cross-cultural mechanisms of exchange •explore utopian uses of technology in the postcolonial sphere. Exploring a variety of national, diasporan and transnational counternarratives to Western modernization, Beyond the Black Atlantic makes a valuable contribution to the fields of postcolonial, literary and cultural studies.

POSTCOLONIAL STUDIES The Location of Culture

2ND EDITION

Imperial Eyes

Homi K. Bhabha

White Mythologies

Travel Writing and Transculturation

With a new preface by the author

Robert J.C. Young, New York University, USA

Mary Louise Pratt

Series: Routledge Classics

Praise for the first edition:

Pratt intriguingly explores European travel and exploration writing. In a study of genre and as a critique of ideology, Imperial Eyes examines how travel books by Europeans create the domestic subject of European imperialism.

‘Bhabha is that rare thing, a reader of enormous subtlety and wit, a theorist of uncommon power. His work is a landmark in the exchange between ages, genres and cultures; the colonial, post-colonial, modernist and postmodern.’ – Edward Said Rethinking questions of identity, social agency and national affiliation, Bhabha provides a working, if controversial, theory of cultural hybridity - one that goes far beyond previous attempts by others. In The Location of Culture, he uses concepts such as mimicry, interstice, hybridity, and liminality to argue that cultural production is always most productive where it is most ambivalent. Speaking in a voice that combines intellectual ease with the belief that theory itself can contribute to practical political change, Bhabha has become one of the leading post-colonial theorists of this era. 2004: 234x156: 304pp Pb: 0-415-33639-2 ISBN13: 978-0-415-33639-0: US $22.95

David Huddart, Chinese University of Hong Kong Series: Routledge Critical Thinkers Homi K. Bhabha is one of the most highly renowned figures in contemporary post-colonial studies. This volume explores his writings and their influence on postcolonial theory, introducing in clear and accessible language the key concepts of his work, such as ‘ambivalence’, ‘mimicry’, ‘hybridity’ and ‘translation’.

2005: 198x129: 192pp Hb: 0-415-32823-3 ISBN13: 978-0-415-32823-4: US $90.00 Pb: 0-415-32824-1 ISBN13: 978-0-415-32824-1: US $19.95

‘Influential study of post-colonial theory.’ – Times Higher Educational Supplement In 1990, Robert Young’s White Mythologies set out to question the very concepts of history and the West. Is it possible, he asked, to write history that avoids the trap of Eurocentrism? Is history simply a Western myth? His reflections on these topics provided some of the most important new directions in postcolonial studies and continue to exert a huge influence on the field. This new edition reprints what has quickly become a classic text, along with a substantial new essay reflecting on changes in the field and in the author’s own position since publication. 2004: 234x156: 304pp Hb: 0-415-31180-2 ISBN13: 978-0-415-31180-9: US $110.00 Pb: 0-415-31181-0 ISBN13: 978-0-415-31181-6: US $30.95

Homi K. Bhabha

David Huddart draws on a range of contexts, including art history, contemporary cinema and canonical texts in order to illustrate the practical application of Bhabha’s theories. This introductory guidebook is ideal for all students working in the fields of literary, cultural and postcolonial theory.

‘Young provocatively resists the demands of historical thought. In explaining the effects of history as textuality he provides a cogent perspective on current work around the questions of writing and difference.’ – Homi K. Bhabha

The Empire Writes Back Theory and Practice in Post-Colonial Literatures Bill Ashcroft, Gareth Griffiths and Helen Tiffin Series: New Accents

Sam Lopez, College of DuPage, Illinois, USA Series: Latino Communities: Emerging Voices - Political, Social, Cultural and Legal Issues This book attempts to explain how Chicana literature in three genres - memoir, folklore, and fiction - arose at the turn of the twentieth century in the borderlands of Texas and Mexico. Three women writers spanning the years 1900 - 1950 are examined for their contributions to Chicana writing in its earliest years, as well as for their contributions to the genres they write in. In addition, the city of Laredo on the border is examined as a unique historical, socio-cultural, and political base for radical rethinking of women’s roles in the home, politics, and society.

‘For anyone getting going as a writer (and even for those who have already made a start), this is an invaluable how-to guide, full of useful tips, mind-freeing exercises, and inspiring wisdom from established authors. A book to banish the terror of the blank page.’ – Blake Morrison Suitable for use by students, tutors, writers’ groups or writers working alone, this book offers: •a practical and inspiring section on the creative process, showing how to stimulate creativity and use memory and experience in inventive ways •in-depth coverage of the most popular forms of writing, in extended sections on fiction, poetry and life writing, including biography and autobiography, providing practice in all three forms

Imagining Robin Hood

(Re-)Reading Bede

The Late Medieval Stories in Historical Context

The Ecclesiastical History in Context

A.J. Pollard, University of Teesside, UK

N.J. Higham, University of Manchester, UK

‘This pithy, intriguing study ... offers fascinating insights into the Reformation in England.’ – Christopher Silvester, The Sunday Times ‘His overview is ... fascinating.’ – Warrington Guardian A.J Pollard takes us back to the earliest surviving stories of Robin Hood, the stories, tales and ballads of the fifteenth century to reexamine the story of this fascinating figure. Setting out the economic, social and political context of the time, Pollard illuminates the legend of this yeoman hero and champion of justice as never before. Imagining Robin Hood examines: •what a ‘yeoman’ was, and what it meant to a fifteenth-century Englishman •Was Robin Hood hunted as an outlaw, or respected as an officially appointed forest ranger? •Why do we ignore the fact that this celebrated hero led a life of crime? •Did he actually steal from the rich and give to the poor?

•encourages experimentation and creativity •stimulates critical awareness through discussion of literary theory and a wide range of illustrative texts •approaches writing as a skill, as well as an art form •is packed with individual and group exercises •offers invaluable tips on the revision and editing processes.

Answering these questions, the book looks at how Robin Hood was ‘all things to all men’ since he first appeared; speaking to the gentry, the peasants and all those in between. The story of the freedom-loving outlaw tells us much about the English nation, but tracing back to the first stories reveals even more about the society in which the legend arose. An enthralling read for all historians and general readers of this fascinating subject.

Featuring practical suggestions for developing and improving your writing, The Routledge Creative Writing Coursebook is an ideal course text for students and an invaluable guide to self-study.

In (Re-)Reading Bede, N.J. Higham offers a fresh approach to how we should engage with this great work of history. He focuses particularly on Bede’s purposes in writing it, its internal structure, the political and social context in which it was composed and the cultural values it betrays, remembering always that our own approach to Bede has been influenced to a very great extent by the various ways in which he has been both used, as a source, and commemorated, as man and saint, across the last 1300 years.

A Casebook Edited by Greti Dinkova-Bruun and Jennifer A. Harris Series: Garland Library of Medieval Literature The Medieval Bible as a Way of Life proposes to study the Bible not merely as the most-read text of the medieval period but as a way of life. Although several essays collected here explore the scholarly and monastic uses of the Bible, such as its role as a source of motifs in art, as store-house of stories for literature, as authority in hagiographical discourse, and as tool for teaching and preaching, other essays look beyond the monasteries and schools to find the places where the Bible shaped popular conceptions of the world.

Unfinished Business in Cultural Materialism

From Ecopolitics to Ecocriticism

Alternative Shakespeares: Volume 3

Alan Sinfield, University of Sussex, UK

Gabriel Egan, Loughborough University, UK

Edited by Diana E. Henderson

‘If there were a version of Desert Island Discs for literary criticism, this book would top the list of things I would want with me to read again and again for its clarity of purpose, its generosity of spirit, the brilliance of its insights, and its ability to engage seamlessly and resonantly with current scholarship, contemporary politics, historical dynamics, and the meanings of Shakespeare.’ – Lena Cowen Orlin, University of Maryland, USA, and Executive Director of the Shakespeare Association of America

Ecocriticism, a theoretical movement examining cultural constructions of Nature in their social and political contexts, is making an increasingly important contribution to our understanding of Shakespeare’s plays. In this volume, Egan presents:

Alternative Shakespeares 3 introduces the strongest and most innovative of the new directions emerging in Shakespearean scholarship – ranging across performance studies, multimedia issues, textual criticism, concerns of religion, science, and ethics - as well as the ‘next step’ work in areas such as globalization or queer studies that have been pushing at the boundaries of the field for some years. Contributors approach each topic with clarity and accessibility in mind, enabling student readers to engage with serious ‘alternatives’ to established ways of seeing Shakespeare’s plays and their role in contemporary culture.

‘Alan Sinfield has been one of the most thoughtful and provocative writers on early modern culture for the last two decades and his critical power is evident throughout this book.’ – Kate McLuskie, Director of the Shakespeare Institute, Stratford-upon-Avon, UK

Crossing the boundaries of literary and cultural studies to draw in politics, philosophy and ecology, this volume not only introduces one of the most lively areas of contemporary Shakespeare studies, but also puts forward a convincing case for Shakespeare’s continuing relevance to contemporary theory.

Shakespeare, Authority, Sexuality is a powerful reassessment of cultural materialism as a way of understanding textuality, history and culture, by one of the founding figures of this critical movement. Alan Sinfield examines cultural materialism both as a body of ongoing argument and as it informs particular works by Shakespeare and his contemporaries, especially in relation to sexuality in early-modern England and queer theory.

Linda Charnes, Indiana University, Bloomington, USA

Edited by Terence Hawkes

Speaking to readers in a voice that is adventurous rather than authoritative, innovative rather than institutional and speculative rather than orthodox, Linda Charnes’ provocative study of Shakespeare’s legacy in contemporary American and British politics explores the following themes:

•theories of textuality and reading •the political location of Shakespearean plays and the organization of literary culture today •the operation of state power in the early-modern period and the scope for dissidence •the sex/gender system in that period and the application of queer theory in history.

The book has several interlocking preoccupations:

These preoccupations are explored in and around a range of works by Shakespeare and his contemporaries. Throughout the book Sinfield represents cultural materialism, framing it not as a set of propositions, as has often been done, but as a cluster of unresolved problems. His brilliant, lucid and committed readings demonstrate that the ‘unfinished business’ of cultural materialism - and Sinfield’s work in particular - will long continue to produce new questions and challenges for the fields of Shakespeare and Renaissance Studies.

The expertise, commitment and daring of this volume’s contributors shines through each essay, maintaining the progressive edge and real-world urgency that are the hallmark of Alternative Shakespeares. This volume is essential reading for students and scholars of Shakespeare who seek an understanding of current and future directions in this ever-changing field.

Linked by focused readings of Hamlet and the Henriad, the essays follow Shakespeare’s two most famous royal sons, the Princes Hamlet and Hal, as they haunt contemporary political psychology in the early years of a new millennium, and especially in the aftermath of September 11, 2001. In exploring how current political culture inherits Shakespeare, Hamlet’s Heirs challenges scholarly assumptions about historical periodicity, modernity and the uses of Shakespeare in present day contexts.

Shakespeare in French Theory

Shakespeare and Cognition

2ND EDITION

King of Shadows

Aristotle’s Legacy and Shakespearean Drama

Shakespeare: The Basics

Richard Wilson, Cardiff University, UK

Arthur Kinney

Sean McEvoy, Varndean College, Brighton, UK

At a time when the relevance of literary theory is frequently being questioned, Richard Wilson makes a compelling case for French Theory in Shakespeare Studies.

Shakespeare and Cognition examines the essential relationship between vision, knowledge, and memory in Renaissance models of cognition as seen in Shakespeare’s plays. Drawing on both Aristotle’s Metaphysics and contemporary cognitive literary theory, Arthur F. Kinney explores five key objects/images in Shakespeare’s plays - crowns, bells, rings, graves, and ghosts - that are not actually seen (or, in the case of the latter, not meant to be seen), but are central to the imaginations of both the playwright and the playgoers. By examining the reception of these iconic objects over time, Kinney lends a new perspective to the long-lasting conflict between the humanists who insist Shakespeare’s language is universal and the theorists and new historicists who argue that Shakespeare’s texts are particular to his time. Kinney demonstrates that while no object and no passage in Shakespeare has a universal and single meaning, the ways in which these objects bridge our ‘natural responses’ (as they did Shakespeare’s audience in his own time) may help to explain the power, popularity, and influence of Shakespeare’s drama today.

Series: The Basics

Written in two parts, the first half looks at how French theorists such as Bourdieu, Cixous, Deleuze, Derrida and Foucault were themselves shaped by reading Shakespeare; while the second part applies their theories to the plays, highlighting the importance of both for current debates about borders, terrorism, toleration and a multi-cultural Europe. Contrasting French and Anglo-Saxon attitudes, Wilson shows how in France, Shakespeare has been seen not as a man for the monarchy, but a man of the mob. French Theory thus helps us understand why Shakepeare’s plays swing between violence and hope. Highlighting the recent religious turn in theory, Wilson encourages a reading of plays like Hamlet, Julius Caesar, A Midsummer Night’s Dream and Twelth Night as models for a future peace. Examining both the violent history and promising future of the plays, Shakespeare in French Theory is a timely reminder of the relevance of Shakespeare and the lasting value of French thinking for the democracy to come.

Shakespeare’s Webs Networks of Meaning in Renaissance Drama Arthur F. Kinney Renowned Renaissance drama critic Arthur F. Kinney argues that Shakespeare’s method of composing plays through networks of meanings can be seen as a harbinger of today’s information technology. Drawing upon hypertext and cognitive theory, he looks in detail at four objects/images in Shakespeare’s plays mirrors, maps, clocks, and books - and explores the ways in which they make up networks of meaning within single plays and across the dramatist’s body of work that anticipate in some ways the networks of meaning or ‘information’ now possible in the computer age. 2004: 234x156: 192pp Hb: 0-415-97102-0 ISBN13: 978-0-415-97102-7: US $95.00 Pb: 0-415-97103-9 ISBN13: 978-0-415-97103-4: US $28.95

Colorblind Shakespeare New Perspectives on Race and Performance

Engines of the Imagination

Edited by Ayanna Thompson, Arizona State University, USA

Renaissance Culture and the Rise of the Machine

Foreword by Ania Loomba

Jonathan Sawday, Strathclyde University in Glasgow, UK

The systematic practice of non-traditional or ‘colorblind’ casting began with Joseph Papp’s New York Shakespeare Festival in the 1950s. Although colorblind casting has been practiced for half a century now, it still inspires vehement controversy and debate. This collection of fourteen original essays explores both the production history of colorblind casting in cultural terms and the theoretical implications of this practice for reading Shakespeare in a contemporary context.

Challenging the artificial divide between technological studies and cultural history, this book traces the story of the imaginative encounter with machines and machinery in the European Renaissance.

This remarkable volume challenges scholars and students to look beyond a dominant European and North American ‘metropolitan bank’ of Shakespeare knowledge. As well as revealing the potential for a new understanding of Shakespeare’s plays, Martin Orkin adopts a fresh approach to issues of power, where ‘proximations’ emerge from a process of dialogue and challenge traditional notions of authority. Questioning the authority of metropolitan scholarship, twenty-first century global capitalism and the masculinist imperatives that drive it, Orkin’s daring, powerful work will have reverberations throughout, but also well beyond the field of Shakespeare studies. 2005: 234x156: 232pp Hb: 0-415-34878-1 ISBN13: 978-0-415-34878-2: US $110.00 Pb: 0-415-34879-X ISBN13: 978-0-415-34879-9: US $33.95

Acting from Shakespeare’s First Folio

The Renaissance World

Early Modern Prose Fiction

Theory, Text and Performance

Edited by John Jeffries Martin, Trinity University, Texas, USA

The Cultural Politics of Reading

Don Weingust, Tufts University, USA ‘Original’ Shakespearean theatrical architecture, texts and performance methodologies have become subjects of great popular, professional and academic theatrical interest. Acting from Shakespeare’s First Folio: Theory, Text & Performance examines a series of techniques for reading and performing Shakespeare’s plays that are based on the texts of the first ‘complete’ volume of Shakespeare’s works: The First Folio of 1623. Do extra syllables in a line suggest how it might be played? Can Folio commas reveal character? Don Weingust places this work on Folio performance possibility within current understandings about Shakespearean text, describing ways in which these challenging theories about acting often align quite nicely with the work of the theories’ critics. As part of this study, Weingust looks at the work of Patrick Tucker and his London-based Original Shakespeare Company, who have sought to discover the opportunities in using First Folio texts, acting techniques, and what they consider to be original Shakespearean performance methodologies. Weingust argues that their experimental performances at the Globe on Bankside have revealed enhanced possibilities not only for performing Shakespeare, but for theatrical practice in general.

Shakespeare, The Movie II Popularizing the Plays on Film, TV, Video and DVD Edited by Richard Burt and Lynda E. Boose Combining three key essays from Shakespeare: The Movie with exciting new work from leading contributors, this text offers sixteen fascinating essays. It is quite simply a must-read for any student of Shakespeare, film or cultural studies.

Series: Routledge Worlds With an interdisciplinary approach that encompasses the history of ideas, political history, cultural history and art history, this volume in the successful Routledge Worlds series offers a sweeping survey of Europe in the Renaissance, from the late thirteenth to early seventeenth centuries, and shows how the Renaissance laid key foundations for many aspects of the modern world. Collating forty essays from the field’s leading scholars, John Jeffries Martin shows that this period of rapid and complex change resulted from a convergence of a new set of social, economic and technological forces on one hand, and on the other, a cluster of interrelated practices including painting, sculpture, humanism and science, in which the elites engaged. Unique in its balance of emphasis on both elite and popular culture, on humanism and society, and on women as well as men, The Renaissance World grapples with issues as diverse as Renaissance patronage and the development of the slave trade. Lavishly illustrated and nicely topped and tailed with sections on the antecedents of the Renaissance world, and on the end of the Renaissance and its lasting influence, students and scholars of history and the Renaissance will find this an invaluable read which they will dip into again and again.

Edited by Naomi Conn Liebler, Montclair State University, USA Emphasizing the significance of early modern prose fiction as a hybrid genre that absorbed cultural, ideological and historical strands of the age, this fascinating study brings together an outstanding cast of critics including: Sheila T. Cavanaugh, Stephen Guy-Bray, Mary Ellen Lamb, Joan Pong Linton, Steve Mentz, Constance C. Relihan, Goran V. Stanivukovic with an afterword from Arthur Kinney. Each of the essays in this collection considers the reciprocal relation of early modern prose fiction to class distinctions, examining factors such as: •the impact of prose fiction on the social, political and economic fabric of early modern England •the way in which a growing emphasis on literacy allowed for increased class mobility and newly flexible notions of class •how the popularity of reading and the subsequent demand for books led to the production and marketing of books as an industry •complications for critics of prose fiction, as it began to be considered an inferior and trivial art form. Early modern prose fiction had a huge impact on the social and economic fabric of the time, creating a new culture of reading and writing for pleasure which became accessible to those previously excluded from such activities, resulting in a significant challenge to existing class structures.

Reading Renaissance Ethics Edited by Marshall Grossman, University of Maryland, USA For three decades historicist scholars have reconnected Renaissance literature to its historical contexts, while formalist and rhetorical scholars have used improved historical resources to move closer to understanding how literary texts accomplish their cultural work. Reading Renaissance Ethics extends this study to question how Renaissance texts were read and put to use in their own time and how they continued to be used up to the present day. Reading Renaissance Ethics questions the nature and mechanics of cultural agency and allows us to articulate with greater clarity just what is at stake when canon-formation, aesthetic evaluation and curricular reform are questioned and revised. Bringing together some of the best current practitioners of historical and formal criticism, it assesses the ethical performance of renaissance texts as historical agents in their time and in ours.

Routledge Studies in Renaissance Literature and Culture

Rhetoric, Women and Politics in Early Modern England Edited by Jennifer Richards, University of Newcastle, UK and Alison Thorne, University of Strathclyde, Glasgow, UK

Fiction of Old Age in Early Modern Literature

This volume argues, however, that women found a variety of ways to represent their interests persuasively, and that by looking more closely at the importance of rhetoric for early modern women, and their representation within rhetorical culture, we also gain a better understanding of their capacity for political action. Offering a fascinating overview of women and rhetoric in early modern culture, the contributors to this book:

This is a new and timely exploration of the issues and circumstances at work in representations of old age in the early modern period. It deals with both factual and literary material drawn from a range of genres as a means of rounding out the experience of growing old and aims to give readers a sense of the diversity involved in the theorizing, politics and gendering of old age and ageing.

Mary Ellen Lamb, Southern Illinois University, Carbondale, USA

Drawing upon incisive analysis of a wide range of literary texts including poetry, drama, prose polemics, letters and speeches, Rhetoric, Women and Politics in Early Modern England presents an important new perspective on the early modern world, forms of rhetoric, and the role of women in the culture and politics of the time.

Breaking new ground by considering productions of popular culture from above, rather than from below, this book draws on theorists of cultural studies, such as Pierre Bourdieu, Roger Chartier and John Fiske to synthesize work from disparate fields and present new readings of well-known literary works. Using the literature of Shakespeare, Spenser and Johnson, Mary Ellen Lamb investigates the social narratives of several social groups - an urban, middling group; an elite at the court of James; and an aristocratic faction from the countryside. She states that under the pressure of increasing economic stratification, these social fractions created cultural identities to distinguish themselves from each other. She explores the ways in which early modern literature formed a particularly productive site of contest for deep social changes, and how these changes in turn, played a large role in shaping some of the most well-known works of the period.

The Victorian Studies Reader

An Anthology of Women’s Writing on Sex, 1870-1969

Dickens and Religion

Edited by Rohan McWilliam, Anglia Ruskin University, UK and Kelly Boyd

Lesley A. Hall, Wellcome Institute, London, UK

Dennis Walder, The Open University, UK

Series: Women’s and Gender History

The importance of understanding Dickens’s religion to obtain a full appreciation of his achievement has long been admitted; but this is the first critical study of the interaction between Dickens’s religious beliefs and his creative imagination. The novelist’s religious beliefs are a pervasive and deeply felt presence in his works even if they are not always clearly thought out or expressed. Too discreet and humane to be as explicit, or as dull, as most of the professedly religious novelists of his time, Dickens nevertheless suggests in his own way a liberal Protestant belief, shot through with Romantic, transcendental yearnings, which undoubtedly appealed to a very wide range of readers. Dickens’s religion is shown to be that of a great popular writer, who created a unique kind of fiction, and a unique relationship with his readers, by the absorption and transformation of less respectable forms, from fairytale and German romance to tract and print.

Studying one of the most dynamic and influential periods in modern history, The Victorian Studies Reader gathers together, in one volume, some of the key pieces on Victorian history, society and culture. The book draws on new trends in looking at the Victorian Age and includes sections on:

Studying a broader period than its contemporaries, this comprehensive study reveals a neglected tradition of British women’s writing from the Victorian era to the sexual revolution of the 1960s. Outspoken Women brings together the many and varied non-fictional writings of British women on sexual attitudes and behaviour, beginning nearly a hundred years prior to the ‘second wave’ of feminism.

•periodization •politics (both high and low) •consumerism •intellectual Life •sexuality •empire.

Commentators cover a broad range of perspectives and include Darwinists, sexologists, and campaigners against the spread of VD, as well as women writing about their own lives and experiences. Covering all aspects of the debate from marriage, female desire and pleasure, to lesbianism, prostitution, STDs, and sexual ignorance, Lesley A. Hall studies how the works of this era didn’t just criticise male-defined mores and the ‘dark side’ of sex, but how they increasingly promoted the possibility of a brighter view and an informed understanding of the sexual life. Hall’s remarkable anthology is an engaging examination of this fascinating subject and it provides students and scholars with an invaluable source of primary material. 2005: 234x156: 352pp Hb: 0-415-25371-3 ISBN13: 978-0-415-25371-0: US $110.00 Pb: 0-415-25372-1 ISBN13: 978-0-415-25372-7: US $35.95

Professor Walder’s thoroughly researched and lively book provides students of Dickens and the Victorian period with a new perspective on the novelist’s methods and attitudes. He offers a judicious and informed exploration of Dickens’s obsessive themes, from the ‘fall’ of innocence in Pickwick Papers, to the search for a religious ‘answer’ in Little Dorrit. Each chapter focuses upon the striking congruences revealed between individual novels, or groups of novels, and particular religious themes. The views expressed in Dickens’s lesser fiction and non-fiction are drawn on throughout, as are those in the influential contemporary press.

Romantic Representations of British India Edited by Michael J. Franklin, University of Wales, Swansea, UK Michael J. Franklin’s Romantic Representations of British India is a timely study of the impact of Orientalist knowledge upon British culture during the Romantic period. The subject of the book is not so much India, but the British cultural understanding of India particularly between 1750 and 1850. Franklin opens up new areas of investigation in Romantic-period culture, as those texts previously located in the ghetto of ‘Anglo-Indian writing’ are restored to a central place in the wider field of Romanticism. The essays within this collection cover a wide range of topics and are written by an impressive troupe of contributors including P.J. Marshall, Anne Mellor and Nigel Leask.

Systems, State Finance, and the Shadows of Futurity Robert Mitchell, Duke University, North Carolina, USA Taking its lead from the links that Shelley established between finance, sympathy, and social systems, this book argues that it was no coincidence that eighteenth century and Romantic era theories of sympathy and identification emerged during periods of financial crisis, for it was precisely during periods of financial panic that state finance became visible as a system that connected people to one another through affective bonds. This volume draws on the systems theory of Niklas Luhmann, Michel Serres, and Gionvanni Arrighi, as well as Gilles Deleuze’s reflections on the relationship between affect and system. It argues that the link between state finance and sympathy must be understood in the context of what Luhmann describes as the ‘functional differentiation’ of the eighteenth century and Romantic era: that is, the rise of a number of different autonomous subsystems (politics, the economy, science, law, education, religion, and family, for example) each of which established its own codes for dealing with its ‘environment.’ From this perspective, accounts of sympathetic intersubjectivity developed in moral philosophy and imaginative literature are figured not as superstructural reflections of a more primary economic base, but rather as relatively autonomous attempts to understand (and in many cases transform) the social systems.

This volume, a collection of previously unpublished essays by the foremost scholars in the field presents Hazlitt as a philosophical, and not simply a ‘familiar’ essayist. It offers a comprehensive statement of the significance and transmission of Hazlitt’s philosophical principles, in his own work and in that of his contemporaries and succeeding writers.

The New Woman’s Fiction Edited by Suzanne Ferriss, Nova Southeastern University, USA and Mallory Young, Tarleton State University, USA ‘Ferris and Young have put together a volume of intelligent, insightful, readable essays that go beyond current positive/negative judgments of chick lit to critically dissect its importance as cultural and historical phenomenon.’ – Leslie W. Rabine

British Fiction of the 1990s Edited by Nick Bentley, Keele University, UK

•traces the concerns that emerged as central to 1990s fiction, in sections on millennial anxieties, identity politics, the relationship between the contemporary and the historical, and representations of contemporary space •offers distinctive new readings of the most important novelists of the period, including Martin Amis, Beryl Bainbridge, Pat Barker, Julian Barnes, A.S. Byatt, Hanif Kureishi, Ian McEwan, Iain Sinclair, Zadie Smith and Jeanette Winterson •shows how British fiction engages with major cultural debates of the time, such as the concern with representing various identities and cultural groups, or theories of ‘the end of history’ •discusses 1990s fiction in relation to broader literary and critical theories, including postmodernism, post-feminism and postcolonialism.

From the bestselling Bridget Jones’s Diary that started the trend to the television sensation Sex and the City that captured it on screen, ‘chick lit’ has become a major pop culture phenomenon. Banking on female audiences’ identification with single, urban characters who struggle with the same life challenges, publishers have earned millions and even created separate imprints dedicated to the genre. Not surprisingly, some highbrow critics have dismissed chick lit as trashy fiction, but fans have argued that it is as empowering as it is entertaining. This is the first volume of its kind to examine the chick lit phenomenon from a variety of angles, accounting for both its popularity and the intense reactions - positive and negative - it has provoked. The contributors explore the characteristics that cause readers to attach the moniker ‘chick’ to a particular book and what, if anything, distinguishes the category of chick lit from the works of Jane Austen on one end and Harlequin romance novels on the other. They critique the genre from a range of critical perspectives, considering its conflicted relationship with feminism and postfeminism, heterosexual romance, body image, and consumerism. 2005: 234x156: 288pp Hb: 0-415-97502-6 ISBN13: 978-0-415-97502-5: US $95.00 Pb: 0-415-97503-4 ISBN13: 978-0-415-97503-2: US $26.95

Mikhail Bakhtin is one of the most influential theorists of philosophy as well as literary studies. His work on dialogue and discourse has changed the way in which we read texts – both literary and cultural – leading to the idea in twentieth-century thought whereby literature is understood to be a form of ethically charged knowledge and philosophy a form of creative writing, the attributes of ‘play’ and ‘truth’ being a monopoly of neither exclusively but rather variously exhibited in both. In this book Graham Pechey offers a commentary on Bakhtin’s texts in all their complex and allusive ‘textuality’, keeping a sense throughout of the historical setting in which they were written and of his own interpretation of and response to them. Examining Bakhtin’s relationship to Russian Formalism and Soviet Marxism, Pechey focuses in on two major interests: the influence of Eastern Orthodox Christianity upon his thinking; and Bakhtin’s use of literary criticism and hermeneutics as ways of ‘doing philosophy by other means’.

Neil LaBute A Casebook Edited by Gerald C. Wood, Carson-Newman College Series: Casebooks on Modern Dramatists Neil LaBute: A Casebook is the first book to examine one of the most successful and controversial contemporary American playwrights and filmmakers. While he is most famous, and in some cases infamous, for his early films In the Company of Men and Your Friends and Neighbors, Labute is equally accomplished as a playwright. His work extends from the critique of false religiosity in Bash to examinations of opportunism, irresponsible art, failed parenting, and racism in later plays like Mercy Seat, The Shape of Things, The Distance From Here, Fat Pig, Autobahn, and the very recent This Is How It Goes and Some Girls. This casebook explores the primary issues of the writer’s style, themes, and dramatic achievements.

• a literary-historical overview of the twentieth century

The Postmodernism Reader

• insight into theoretical discussions around the purpose, value and form of literature which dominated the century

Foundational Texts Edited by Michael Drolet The Postmodernism Reader traces the origins, evolvement and the politics of postmodernism through the key writings of postmodernist thinkers. This collection of foundational essays restores the poignancy that has been lost - or even emphatically rejected - in the debate about postmodernism by focusing on central formative texts and the predominant thinkers we have come to associate with postmodernist theory. Michael Drolet’s authoritative introductory essay and his careful selection of texts provide a solid basis for the study of postmodernism by uncovering the philosophical origins of present theories and focusing on their major aspects, guiding the reader through the maze of knowledge that we call postmodernism.

Culture, Writing and the Politics of Re/Cognition Winfried Siemerling, Universite de Sherbrooke, Canada

WINNER of the English Book Award, Grand Prix du Livre 2006 de la Ville de Sherbrooke.

‘Winfried Siemerling’s exciting New North American Studies shows what a spatial hermeneutics can do when applied to certain literary and cultural inquiry. This marvellous book ... offers one of the first systematic comparative readings of the multi-cultures and languages of North America. A shot across the bow, it reconfigures our entire notion of an “Americas” studies.’ – Werner Sollors, Harvard University, USA In this original and groundbreaking study, Winfried Siemerling examines the complexities of recognition and identity, rejecting previous nationalized thinking to approach North American cultural transformations from transnational and interdisciplinary perspectives. Using material from the United States and Canada as case studies and drawing on a wide range of texts and theorists, he examines postcoloniality and cultural emergence from the sixties to the present against earlier backgrounds. Siemerling’s argument for a retheorization of the field takes on the full history of multiculturalism debates, including radical readings of W.E.B. Du Bois and Charles Taylor, and their relation to G.W.F. Hegel, and challenging many of the models of multiculturalism in use today.

Routledge Transnational Perspectives on American Literature

Multiculturalism and the Jews Sander Gilman, Emory University, USA In this powerful and wideranging study, Sander Gilman explores the idea of ‘the multicultural’ in the contemporary world, a question he frames as the question of the relationship between Jews and Muslims. How do Jews define themselves, and how are they in turn defined, within the global struggles of the moment, struggles that turn in large part around a secularized Christian perspective? Gilman uses his subject to unpack a sequence of important issues: what does it mean to be multicultural? Can the experience of diaspora Judaism serve as a useful model for Islam in today’s multicultural Europe? What is a multicultural ethnic? Other chapters look at specific figures in Jewish cultural history - Albert Einstein, Franz Kafka, Israel Zangwill, Philip Roth, the hermaphrodite N.O. Body (aka Karl Baer, raised as Martha Baer) - to explore issues within Jewish identity. Throughout, Gilman pays keen attention to the ways in which contemporary literature - Chabon, Ozick, Zadie Smith, Jonathan Safran Foer, Gary Shteyngart - takes the idea of Jewishness and multiculturalism into new arenas. June 2006: 234x156: 288pp Hb: 0-415-97917-X ISBN13: 978-0-415-97917-7: US $95.00 Pb: 0-415-97918-8 ISBN13: 978-0-415-97918-4: US $24.95

In an age of globalization, it has become increasingly difficult to characterize the United States as culturally and linguistically homogenous and impermeable to influences from beyond its territorial borders. This series seeks to provide more cosmopolitan and transnational perspectives on American literature, by offering: • in-depth analyses of American writers and literature by internationally based scholars • critical studies that foster awareness of the ways in which American writing engages with writers and cultures north and south of its territorial boundaries, as well as with the writers and cultures across the Atlantic and Pacific.

Native American Literature

Toni Morrison’s ‘Beloved’

Towards a Spatialized Reading

Possible Worlds

Helen May Dennis, University of Warwick, UK

Justine Tally, Universidad de La Laguna, Spain

Native American Literature underwent a Renaissance around 1968, and the current canon of novels written in the late twentieth century in American English by Native American or mixed-blood authors is diverse, exciting and flourishing. Despite this, very few such novels are accepted as part of the broader American literary canon.

The enormous popularity of Toni Morrison’s Pulitzer Prize-winning novel Beloved (1987) has incited an extraordinary array of critical approaches.

This book offers a valuable and original approach to contemporary Native American literature. Dennis’s contemplation of space and spatialized aesthetics is compelling and persuasive. Considering Native American literature within a modernist framework, and comparing it with writers such as Woolf, Stein, T.S Eliot and Proust results in a valuable and enriching context for the selected texts.

The author explores issues such as the relationship of Memory, History and Story, the location of Morrison as one of the foremost intellectuals of her time, who through her fiction is seen to be profoundly concerned with questions crucial to the ‘postmodern debate’ taking place during the later decades of the twentieth century, and the idea that through her fiction Toni Morrison is also exploring the possibilities of literary theory.

Vital reading for scholars of Native American Literature, this book will also provide good grounding in the subject for those with an interest in American and twentieth century literature more generally.

Transnationalism and American Literature

What is transnationalism and how does it affect American literature?

Between the Angle and the Curve Mapping Gender, Race, Space, and Identity in Willa Cather and Toni Morrison Danielle Russell July 2006 Hb: 0-415-97696-0 ISBN13: 978-0-415-97696-1: US $75.00

This book examines nineteenth century contexts of transnationalism, translation and American literature. The discussion of transnationalism largely revolves around the question of what role nationalism plays in the spaces and temporalities of the transatlantic. Boggs demonstrates that the assumption that American literature has become transnational only recently - that there is such a thing as an ‘era’ of transnationalism - marks a blindness to the intrinsic transatlanticism of American literature.

Why Fairy Tales Stick

The Misunderstood Storyteller

Jack Zipes, University of Minnesota, USA

Jack Zipes, University of Minnesota, USA

In his latest book, fairy tales expert Jack Zipes explores the question of why some fairy tales ‘work’ and others don’t, why the fairy tale is uniquely capable of getting under the skin of culture and staying there. Why, in other words, fairy tales ‘stick.’ Long an advocate of the fairy tale as a serious genre with wide social and cultural ramifications, Jack Zipes here makes his strongest case for the idea of the fairy tale not just as a collection of stories for children but a profoundly important genre. Why Fairy Tales Stick contains two chapters on the history and theory of the genre, followed by case studies of famous tales (including Cinderella, Snow White, and Bluebeard), followed by a summary chapter on the problematic nature of traditional storytelling in the twenty-first century.

Fairy Tales and the Art of Subversion Jack Zipes, University of Minnesota, USA The fairy tale may be one of the most important cultural and social influences on children’s lives. But until Fairy Tales and the Art of Subversion little attention had been paid to the ways in which the writers and collectors of tales used traditional forms and genres in order to shape children’s lives – their behavior, values, and relationship to society. As Jack Zipes convincingly shows, fairy tales have always been a powerful discourse, capable of being used to shape or destabilize attitudes and behavior within culture. For this new edition, the author has revised the work throughout and added a new introduction bringing this classic title up to date.

The 2005 bicentenary of Hans Christian Andersen’s birth is an opportunity to re-evaluate the achievement of one of the great figures of the fairy tale and storytelling tradition, a beloved writer famous for The Snow Queen and The Little Mermaid, The Ugly Duckling and The Red Shoes and many other now classic tales. Jack Zipes broadens our understanding of Andersen by exploring the relation of the Danish writer’s work to the development of literature and of the fairy tale in particular.

The authors explore picturebooks as a specific medium or genre in literature and culture, one that prepares children for other media of communication, and they argue that picturebooks may be the most influential media of all in the socialization and representation of children. Spanning an international range of children’s books, this book examines such favorites as Curious George and Frog and Toad Are Friends, along with the works of authors and illustrators including Maurice Sendak and Tove Jansson, among others. With 116 illustrations, How Picturebooks Work offers the student of children’s literature a new methodology, new theories, and a new set of critical tools for examining the picturebook form. 2006: 234x156: 308pp Pb: 0-415-97968-4 ISBN13: 978-0-415-97968-9: US $27.95

Inventing the Child John Zornado, Rhode Island College, USA Now in paperback, Inventing the Child is a highly entertaining, humorous, and at times acerbic account of what it means to be a child (and a parent) in America at the dawn of the new millennium. J. Zornado explores the history and development of the concept of childhood, starting with the works of Calvin, Freud and Rousseau, and culminating with the modern ‘consumer’ childhood of Dr. Spock and television. The volume discusses major media depictions of childhood and examines the ways in which parents use different forms of media to swaddle, educate, and entertain their children. Zornado argues that the stories we tell our children contain the ideologies of the dominant culture - which, more often than not, promote ‘happiness’ at all costs, materialism as the way to happiness, and above all, obedience to the dominant order.

Although the book contains some discussion of folktales, the main emphasis is on contemporary children’s literature set in Africa. The chapters raise issues regarding colonialism, the politics of representation, and the challenges posed to both ‘insiders’ and ‘outsiders’ writing about Africa for children.

Myth, Symbol, and Meaning in Mary Poppins

Russian Children’s Literature and Culture

Giorgia Grilli, University of Bologna, Italy The Mary Poppins that many people know of today – a stern, but sweet, loveable, and reassuring British nanny – is a far cry from the character created by Pamela Lyndon Travers in the 1930s. Instead, this is the Mary Poppins reinvented by Disney in the eponymous movie. This book sheds light on the original Mary Poppins, drawing important parallels between the character and the life of her creator, who worked as a governess herself. Myth, Symbol, and Meaning in Mary Poppins is the only full-length study that covers all the Mary Poppins book, and sheds light, in contrast to the Disney film, on why the books are a literary success and continue to have such a strong popular reception throughout the demonstrates how subversive Mary Poppins truly was. The governess was a figure adopted during the Victorian and Edwardian Age to embody, teach, and pass on the most rigid and rigorous rules values of that society the very ones that Mary Poppins herself comes to unsettle.

The Children’s Book Business Lissa Paul, University of New Brunswick The Children’s Book Business is an exploration of how children’s literature and children’s lit publishing has been shaped by the relationship between what the author calls ‘status quo’ books - didactic ones that support a perceived social order and often deny truths of the real, adult world - and what she calls ‘guerilla’ books - those that undermine or question the values of the social order and actually encourage negotiation with the real world, albeit in a coded, literary way. Following an introductory case study, part one looks at the history of publishing for children and the marketing of children’s literature, whilst part two focuses on guerilla books. Part three takes a look at the children’s publishing industry and how it’s been altered with the megamerger mentality shifting to entertainment and money (toys, cartoon/film tie-ins). Part four discusses the threat to worthwhile children’s lit posed by standardized testing in schools. The book explains how testing, which is more pervasive than ever, champions basic skills over appreciation of literary merit, and creates a great demand for suitably neutral (bland, inoffensive) texts that are anything but worthwhile in terms of the kind of intellectual and emotional pleasure that provides the motivation for being literate.

Soon Come Home to This Island

The Outside Child, In and Out of the Book

West Indians in British Children’s Literature

Christine Wilkie-Stibbs, University of Warwick

Karen Sands-O’Connor, Buffalo State College, USA

The Outside Child, In and Out of the Book is situated at the intersection between children’s literature studies and childhood studies. In this provocative book, Christine Wilkie-Stibbs juxtaposes the narratives of literary and actual ‘outsider’ children to explore how Western culture has imagined, defined, and dealt with various marginalized children, whether orphans, homeless, refugees, or victims of abuse.

Soon Come Home to This Island traces the representation of West Indian characters in British children’s literature from 1700 to today. This book challenges traditional notions of British children’s literature as mono-cultural by illuminating the contributions of colonial and postcolonial-era Black British writers. The author examines the varying depictions of West Indian islands and peoples in a wide range of picture books, novels, textbooks, and popular periodicals published over the course of more than 300 years. An excellent resource for any children’s literature student or scholar, the book includes a chronological bibliography of primary source material that includes West Indian characters and twenty black-and-white illustrations that chart the changes in visual representations of West Indians over time.

Encyclopedia of Post-Colonial Literatures in English Edited by Eugene Benson and L.W. Conolly Post-Colonial Literatures in English, together with English Literature and American Literature, form one of the three major groupings of literature in English, and, as such, are widely studied around the world. Their significance derives from the richness and variety of experience which they reflect. In two volumes, this Encyclopedia documents the history and development of this body of work and includes original research relating to the literatures of some fifty countries and territories. In more than 1,600 entries written by more than 600 internationally recognized scholars, it explores the effect of the colonial and post-colonial experience on literatures in English worldwide.

The Routledge Encyclopedia of Narrative Theory Edited by David Herman, Manfred Jahn and Marie-Laure Ryan ‘Potentially daunting, this complex subject is made a snap by clever arrangements for entries: five different types, from mini-essay to thumbnail definition, all cross-indexed. The helpful navigational aids include coded typeface, a thematically-organized reader’s guide, and an excellent comprehensive index. Thorough, accessible, and remarkably free of obfuscating language. Highly recommended.’ – Choice ‘[T]his impressive reference demonstrates the broad application and meanings associated with the notion of narrative from its first theoretical use by French structuralists in the 1960s to contemporary cross-disciplinary uses, as in narrative medicine. None of the entries [are] devoted to a theorist, rather, they grapple with concepts, approaches, genres, technical terms, and ideas.

Routledge International Encyclopedia of Queer Culture

Edited by Tom Dalzell and Terry Victor ‘A veritable Madame Tussaud’s of the vulgar language. It is a really epoch-making, monumental piece of work, carried out with astonishing industry and learning.’ – New Statesman

Edited by David A. Gerstner, City University of New York, USA The Routledge International Encyclopedia of Queer Culture covers gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender and queer (GLBTQ) life and culture post-1945, with a strong international approach to the subject. The scope of the work is extremely comprehensive, with entries falling into the broad categories of Dance, Education, Film, Health, Homophobia, the Internet, Literature, Music, Performance, and Politics. Slang is also covered. The international contributors come from a wide array of backgrounds: scholars, journalists, artists, doctors, scientists, lawyers, activists, and an enormous range of ideologies and points of view are represented. Major entries provide in-depth information and consider the intellectual and cultural implications of their subjects in a global context. Information is completely up to date, including full coverage and analysis of such current or ongoing issues as samesex marriage/civil union and the international AIDS epidemic. Additionally, there are important appendices covering international sodomy laws and archival institutions, which will be of great value to researchers. The encyclopedia is fully crossreferenced and many entries carry a bibliography. Where possible World Wide Web references have been given. There is a full index. The combination of its wide scope, determined international coverage and appendices make the Routledge International Encyclopedia of Queer Culture a uniquely ambitious work and an extremely rich source of information. It is a priority addition for all libraries serving scholars and students with an interest in GLBTQ culture, history and politics across the disciplines.

The entries examine the history of the literature in different countries and languages from classical antiquity to the present day, individual writers from around the world (not all of them necessarily known as specialist writers of erotic literature), significant works, genres and critical approaches, and general themes pertinent to erotic literature (nudity, prostitution, etc.). The definition of erotic literature is broad, encompassing all the material recognized in the study of the field: not just fiction in all genres (novels, poetry, short stories, drama) but also essays, autobiographies, treatises, and sex manuals from different cultures. This Encyclopedia deals with sexually explicit texts characterized by sexual representations and suggestions. All types of sexuality are included.

The first volume describes the Chinese, Tibetan, Japanese, Korean and Mongolian literatures; the second covers the area of South and South-East Asia, comprising, besides all literatures of India and Pakistan, those of Nepal, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Myanmar, Thailand, Cambodia, Vietnam, Indonesia, Malaysia and the Philippines; and the third is devoted to the literatures of West Asia and North Africa, including those of the ancient Near East and Egypt, Central Asia and the Caucasus, of Turkey, Iran, Afghanistan and of the various Arab countries including Morocco, Tunisia and Algeria. The Dictionary has been prepared by the Oriental Institute in Prague under the supervision of an Advisory Editorial Board of European and American scholars of international reputation, and is unique in that it is the fruit of the collaboration of over 150 orientalists from many parts of the world.

Edited by Wintle Justin

Edited by Trev Lynn Broughton, University of York, UK

Edited by Brenda Murphy, University of Connecticut, USA

Series: Critical Concepts in Literary and Cultural Studies This collection brings together both ‘mainstream’ and ‘dissident’ theorists, authors and texts. With an introduction by the editor, an index and a chronological table of contents, this collection will be a unique and unrivalled research resource for both student and scholar.

Presenting an overview of criticism on the full range of twentieth-century American drama as well as a substantial anthology that reflects the changing critical perspectives that have been trained on the area, this is a fascinating and unique collection for both student and scholar alike.

This is the successor to the classic reference works Makers of Modern Culture and Makers of Nineteenth-Century Culture, published by Routledge in the early 1980s. New Makers of Modern Culture takes into full account the rise and fall of reputation and influence over the last twenty-five years and the epochal changes that have occurred: the demise of Marxism and the collapse of the Soviet Union; the rise and fall of postmodernism; the eruption of Islamic fundamentalism; the triumph of the Internet. Containing over eight hundred essay-style entries, and covering the period from 1850 to the present, New Makers includes artists, writers, dramatists, architects, philosophers, anthropologists, scientists, sociologists, major political figures, composers, filmmakers and many other culturally significant individuals and is thoroughly international in its purview.

Children’s Literature

Theodor Adorno

Edited by Peter Hunt, Stockholm University, Sweden

Critical Evaluations in Cultural Theory Edited by Simon Jarvis, Robinson College, Cambridge, UK Series: Critical Evaluations in Cultural Theory This collection charts the most important moments in the international reception of Adorno’s thinking, covering the wide range of disciplines his studies touched upon, including literary criticism, musicology, aesthetics, epistemology and metaphysics. There is also a great deal of important scholarship and commentary on Adorno in German that remains untranslated into English. This set will therefore provide Anglophone scholars with the first English translations of these important works. November 2006 Hb: 0-415-30464-4 ISBN13: 978-0-415-30464-1: US $1043.00

Series: Critical Concepts in Literary and Cultural Studies The study of children’s literature is currently centred on literary studies, educational studies, and a third more diverse group of many other related disciplines, including history, bibliography, sociology and psychology. All of these then overlap with cultural studies and contribute to the rapidly growing meta-discipline of childhood studies. Fascinating and insightful, this four-volume collection gathers together fundamental and essential essays from across the spectrum of disciplines, and is organized so that each volume focuses on one general interest group or area. With entries from specialist and professional journals across the world, this is a unique resource to complement the burgeoning numbers of specialist and reference books in the field.
