Frederick Crews has lived through this paradigm shift, having spent (remarkably) his entire career at Berkeley. He has certainly never restrained himself, having taken on, as a critic, psychoanalysis and the recovered memory movement, but now more than ever, as an emeritus, he has the luxury of being able to say whatever he wants. Postmodern Pooh, an entirely new collection of lit-crit parodies, pitched as a panel discussion at the MLA, is energized and enriched by the combination of Crews's freedom and his four decades of experience as an English professor. The result is a brilliant and savagely witty skewering of the combatants on all sides of the academic culture wars. Appartient à la série éditoriale
A sequel of sorts to the classic (and bestselling) sendup of literary criticism, "The Pooh Perplex" Purporting to be the proceedings of a forum on Pooh convened at the Modern Language Association's annual convention, "Postmodern Pooh "brilliantly parodies the academic fads and figures that hold sway at the millennium. Deconstruction, poststructuralist Marxism, new historicism, radical feminism, cultural studies, recovered-memory theory, and postcolonialism, among other methods, take their shots at the poor teddy bear and Crews takes his shots at them. The fun lies in seeing just how much adulteration Pooh can stand. Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |
