About this book
Reviews
"Materialism has always been philosophically problematic, and it never completely coincided with that equally problematic mode called realism. Today, however, it is not only the literary text which can be interrogated for its materialist practice, but also literary criticism and theory itself Few recent collections have been so stimulating in the multiple ways in which they develop these problems and extend their possibilities in all kinds of new dimensions. I have personally found it intellectually productive to return again and again to these essays." - Fredric Jameson, William A. Lane Professor of Comparative Literature and Romance Studies, Duke University, USA
