Tóm tắt: | David Perkins’s Is Literary History Possible? has been a vade mecum for me
as I have been writing this book. Perkins explores post-modern challenges
to existing conceptions of literature and history that suggest literary history
has become impossible. His focus is on the kind of literary history that
I have written in this volume: the single author narrative literary history of a
national literature like Hippolyte Taine’s History of English Literature
(1863) or Francesco de Sanctis’s History of Italian Literature (1870–71).
Perkins also attends to histories of a particular period within a national
literature, devoting a chapter to books and articles that attempt to explain
the causes of English Romanticism, to state its important characteristics,
and to establish its canon. Examples Perkins does not consider of literary
histories closer to my project would include Bonamay Dobre´e’s English
Literature in the Early Eighteenth Century (1959) and John Butt’s English
Literature: The Mid-Eighteenth Century, 1740–1789 (1979), both volumes in
the Oxford History of English Literature series |
