Instead of finding this allegory in the history of The School of Criticism and Theory, I could, and perhaps more appropriately, find it in the history of New Literary History since Ralph Cohen created it a quarter-century ago. For thisjournal has been the chronicler-but even more it has often been the prophet-of the succession of emphases that has characterized our criticism during its career

The Aims of Representation
A collection of essays discussing theories on literature and textuality. Looks at subject as the controlling author of literary work, the work as produced by and absorbed within a larger textuality, and that textuality is created by power-driven historical forces.
Aims of Representation
Literary Invention and the Impulse to Theoretical Change
T HE DESIRE TO universalize our experience, to affirm the unity of being over the ever-changing variety of becoming, is as old as the philosophic urge, an urge we have known since the dawn of humanity as thinking creatures. Trapped within what our own experience permits us to see, we retain the need-as old as Plato's in his war against the Sophists-to try to account for what we must believe is outside those limits, ready to be experienced by ever…

"Orpheus "mit Glück
In the Wake of Morality
IT IS DIFFICULT, if one reads and believes even a small part of currently fashionable theory written in United States, to continue to take relation between literature and moral philosophy seriously as a subject. Having retreated from notion that posited moral philosophies can be taken at face value, as if they were what they claimed to be, and having questioned notion of literature itself as an exclusive selection of privileged texts, one is more…

Theories about Theories about "Theory of Criticism"
Theory of Criticism
Poetics Reconstructed
T HESE DAYS it may seem quite daring, if not perversely reactionary, to proclaim the poem to be utterly and ultimately present, and, even worse, to proclaim it in my title. After all, news from abroad has been arriving almost daily for several years now proclaiming its absence: the emptiness of the word and of the verbal forms it pretends to constitute, the zero degree of writing.1 We are to yield up the word to the hiatus that surrounds it
Fiction, History, and Empirical Reality
Fiction, Nature, and Literary Kinds in Johnson's Criticism of Shakespeare
THE DEDICATED eighteenth-century scholar must be very wary of those (like me, I confess) who peer back into his period with a sensibility tuned to, or formed by, all that comes from the other side of the Kantian revolution. And so the eighteenth-century scholar normally is, with a proper sense of his professionalism and of his territorial rights. He must warn the interloper, who may be anxious to reinterpret major figures or documents, of the dan…
"Eloisa to Abelard"
Window to Critism
Mr. Krieger attempts to extract a total mythology from Shakespeare's Sonnets and to use this mythology in their interpretation. Engaged in developing a poetics which will create a daring and inclusive view of poetry, he uses the metaphor of window and mirror to explore the implications of moving into a poem’s closed context and outward to history and existence. Originally published in 1964. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-de…
