Publisher Summary 1
Critical theory and post-structuralism is apparently on the wane in Western academia, according to a number of observers. Payne (English, Bucknell U., US) and Schad (Victorian studies, Loughborough U., UK) present interviews with four academic figures who have been important actors in the formation of critical theory considering whether it is indeed dead or whether it poses continuing relevance: Jacques Derrida, Frank Kermode, Toril Moi, and Christopher Norris.
