Now that literary critique's intellectual and political pay-off is no longer quite
so self-evident, critics are vigorously debating the functions and futures of critique.
The contributors to Critique and Postcritique join this conversation, evaluating critique's
structural, methodological, and political potentials and limitations. Following the
interventions made by Bruno Latour, Eve Kosofsky Sedgwick, Sharon Marcus and Stephen
Best, and others, the contributors assess the merits of the postcritical turn while
exploring a range of alternate methods and critical orientations. Among other topics,
the contributors challenge the distinction between surface and deep reading; outline
how critique-based theory has shaped the development of the novel; examine Donna Haraway's
feminist epistemology and objectivity; advocate for a "hopeful" critical disposition;
highlight the difference between reading as method and critique as genre; and question
critique's efficacy at attending to the affective dimensions of experience. In these
and other essays this volume outlines the state of contemporary literary criticism
while pointing to new ways of conducting scholarship that are better suited to the
intellectual and political challenges of the present
