"If the 1960s was the decade of structuralism, and the 1970s the decade of deconstruction, then the 1980s have been dominated by the discovery and dissemination of Mikhail Bakhtin's work. Now widely regarded as one of the most important thinkers of the twentieth century, the Russian writer Mikhail Bakhtin was silenced by political censorship and persecution for most of his life. In 'After Bakhtin' David Lodge sketches Bakhtin's extraordinary career, and explores the relevance of his ideas on the dialogic nature of language, on the typology of fictional discourses and on the carnivalesque - to the writings of authors as diverse as George Eliot, James Joyce, D.H. Lawrence, Elizabeth Gaskell, Jane Austen, Henry James, Rudyard Kipling and Lian Kundera - illustrative of the development of the novel in its classic, modernist and post-modernist phases. Two final essays reflect on the current state of academic criticism."--Publisher's summary.

Editors Jackson and Yoder have confined their selection of essays to those from the last 20 years and particularly those since 1980. The essays are general in nature rather than confining themselves to a specific work, in an attempt to place Pope in the broader perspective of representing the whole person, as opposed to earlier criticism that depicted him as a skilled craftsman and a poet of eminent good sense.

"If Bakhtin is right," Wayne C. Booth has said, "a very great deal of what we western critics have spent our time on is mistaken, or trivial, or both." In Literature and Spirit David Patterson proceeds from the premise that Bakhtin is right. Exploring Bakhtin's notions of spirit, responsibility, and dialogue, Patterson takes his reader from the narrow arena of literary criticism to the larger realm of human living and human loving. True to the spirit of Bakhtin, he draws the Russian into a vibrant dialogue with other thinkers, including Foucault, Berdyaev, Gide, Lacan, Levinas, and Heidegger. But he does not stop there. He engages Bakhtin in his own insightful and unique dialogue, meeting the responsibility and taking the risk summoned by dialogue. Literature and Spirit, therefore, is not a typically cool and detached exercise in academic curiosity. Instead, it is a passionate and penetrating endeavor to respond to literature and spirit as the links in life's attachment to life. The author demonstrates that in deciding something about literature, we decide something about the substance and meaning of our lives. Far from being a question of commentary or explication, he argues, our relation to literature is a matter of spiritual life and death. The reader who comes before a literary text encounters the human voice. And Patterson enables his reader to hear that voice in all its spiritual dimensions. Unique in its questions and in its quest, Literature and Spirit addresses an audience that goes beyond the ordinary academic categories. It appeals not only to students of literature, philosophy, and religion, but to anyone who seeks an understanding of spiritual presence and meaning in life. Through his affirmation of what is dear, Patterson responds to the needful question. And in his response he puts the question to his audience: Where are you? Literature and Spirit thus speaks to those who face the task of answering, "Here I am."

Aldous Huxley (1894-1963) was one of the most widely read philosophical novelists and essayists of the mid-20th century. His works - such as Brave New World, Antic Hay, and Point Counter Point - became household names during a historical period hardly known for its celebration of intellectual prowess. Huxley was one of the great comic writers of modern British letters, although his dystopian novel Brave New World suggests his vision was often as dark as it was antic. This study provides selections of many important essays published after 1977 in journals the world over.
