Instead of summarising existing knowledge after the fashion of the now-ubiquitous literary 'companions', these essays aim at opening fresh discussion; instead of emphasising settled consensus they direct their readers to areas of enlivened and unresolved debate.

Analysis is devoted not only to self-sufficient works, but to the general conditions of textual production and reception.
