Book synopsis

Derek Attridge provides a rich new vocabulary for literature, rethinking such terms as invention, singularity, otherness, alterity, performance and form. He returns literature to the realm of ethics, and argues the ethical importance of literature, demonstrating how a new understanding of the literary might be put to work in a 'responsible,' creative mode of reading. The Singularity of Literature is not only a major contribution to the theory of literature, but also a celebration of the extraordinary pleasure of the literary, for reader, writer, student or critic.
