  • Moriremos por fuego amigo
    Juan Manuel Santiago
    En 1990, los aficionados españoles a la ciencia ficción aún se lamían las heridas por el cierre de la mítica revista Nueva Dimensión y el comienzo del típico ciclo de crisis que de manera periódica sacudía el fandom. Sin embargo, la conjunción de varios factores (convenciones, revistas y fanzines, tertulias y asociaciones) dio origen a un boom que rompió de manera definitiva co...

    Gerald Cornelius Monsman
    Monsman undertakes a comprehensive critical analysis of Walter Pater's fiction, which presents the critic with numerous causes of frustration, not the least of which is a lack of both dramatic narration and description.

    Michael Ryan

In Marxism and Deconstruction, Michael Ryan examines that multifaceted relationship but not through a mere comparison of two distinct and inviolable entities. Instead, he looks at both with an eye to...

  • Poetic Presence and Illusion
    Murray Krieger
    Poetic Presence and Illusion brings together Krieger's speculation on literature and its effect on the reader. The poem, Krieger argues, is an illusionary presence and an ever-present illusion. It exists for the reader, like a drama before an audience, only within an illusionary context. But the illusion should not be taken lightly as a false substitute for reality. It is i...

    Murray Krieger
    Literary critics who have studied tragedy and the tragic vision failed, in Murray Krieger's estimation, to define exactly what they saw as the tragic vision in general terms. An aim of his book is to create a tentative definition of tragic and to flesh out what the author sees as the definition most illuminating of modern literature and the modern mind. In order to do this,...

But in Before Queer Theory, Dustin Friedman argues that aestheticism deploys its art for art'...
