Reviews for Professions: Conversations on the Future of Literary and Cultural Studies
"This volume comprises neither clearly conservative voices nor extreme radical manifestoes (and hence no angry voices). Hall posits the 'dissensus' rather than the consensus model for debates on curriculum and literary theory... Useful for graduate students trying to make sense of the conversations and conflicts gripping literary academics."
