Textual Practice: Volume 9 Issue 2

by Lindsay Smith (Editor), Alan Sinfield (Editor), Jean Howard (Editor)

Overview

Since its launch in 1987 TP has been Britain's principla international journal of radical literary studies, continually pressing theory into new engagements. Today, as customary relations among disciplines and media are questioned and transformed, TP works at the turning points of theory with politics, history and texts. It is intrigued by the processes through which hitherto marginal cultures of ethnicity and sexuality are becoming conceptually central, and by the consequences of these diverse disturbances for educational and cultural institutions. Textual Practice is available both on subscription and from bookstores.

Editorial Reviews

‘You cannot ignore TP. Its international cast of contributors, well-known and new, engages today's theoretical and practical debates from the roots of modernity into post-modernism, from the politics of sexual preference, to the future of the Left, from literature to activism, with the lines crossing and recrossing.' - Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak, Professor of English and Comparative Literature, Columbia University

‘Textual Practice contains some of the most path-breaking, adventurous critical writing currently to be found in Britain'. - Terry Eagleton, Linacre College, Oxford
