In this collection of essays by seven outstanding American scholars, interests as diverse as feminism, Marxism, deconstruction, and cultural poetics are brought together around a central question: how does the choice of a particular theory after the practice of reading, and how do altered practices of reading in turn call forth more theory?

Gregory S. Jay is the author of American Literature and the Culture Wars and America the Scrivener: Deconstruction and the Subject of Literary History. David L. Miller is the author of Dreams of the Burning Child: Sacrificial Sons and the Father's Witness and The Poem's Two Bodies: The Poetics of the 1590 ""Faerie Queene""
