In the course of interviewing some seventy graduate students in English for a book on the state of literary criticism, I've encountered two types of people who are having trouble adapting to the field. First, there are those who bridle at the left-political conformity of English and who voice complaints familiar from the culture wars. But a second group suffers from a malaise without a name: socialization to the discipline has left them with unaccountable feelings of confusion, inhibition, and loss.KeywordsLiterary CriticismLiterary HistoryHigh TheorySkeptical RepresentationFictional WorldThese keywords were added by machine and not by the authors.
