How did the university literature classroom turn into a seminar on politics? Focusing on such writers as Don DeLillo, Virginia Woolf, and James Merrill, this book examines what has been lost to literature as a discipline, and to literary criticism as a practice, as a result of efforts to reduce the aesthetic to the ideological. Green-Lewis and Soltan celebrate the return of beauty as a subject in its own right to literary studies, a return all the more urgent given beauty s ability to provide not merely consolation but a sense of order and control in the context of a threatening political world.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Palgrave Macmillan\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2008-05-19\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9780230601246\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1057\/9780230612136\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 216cm x140cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 200\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Palgrave Macmillan US","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47677215047820,"sku":"9780230601246","price":49.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9780230601246.jpg?v=1776554749","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9780230601246","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
