Crawford, Robert, 1959-1992
Books, Manuscripts
Questions the manner in which, since the 18th century, a supposed English cultural centre has controlled the way we read. The author interrogates the Anglocentricity of the subject "English literature", demonstrating how it has governed our reading of "unEnglish" and "provincial" texts.
