About the book

The Limits of Literary Historicism is a collection of essays arguing that historicism, which has come to dominate the professional study of literature in recent decades, has become ossified. By drawing attention to the limits of historicism--its blind spots, overreach, and reluctance to acknowledge its commitments--this provocative new book seeks a clearer understanding of what historicism can and cannot teach us about literary narrative.
