Professing Literature: An Institutional History, Twentieth Anniversary Edition (repost)

Gerald Graff, "Professing Literature: An Institutional History, Twentieth Anniversary Edition"
English | ISBN: 0226305597 | December 15, 2007 | 340 pages | PDF | 16,2 MB

Widely considered the standard history of the profession of literary studies, Professing Literature unearths the long-forgotten ideas and debates that created the literature department as we know it today.

In a readable and often-amusing narrative, Gerald Graff shows that the heated conflicts of our recent culture wars echo—and often recycle—controversies over how literature should be taught that began more than a century ago.
