Jeffrey R. Di Leo is Professor of English and Philosophy at the University of Houston-Victoria, USA.
In its scope and ambition, this is a groundbreaking and authoritative reference work that will both define the field and provide an enduring point of orientation. Rich and always accessible, it is an invaluable guide for anyone interested in the study of contemporary literary theory. * Allan Kilner-Johnson, Associate Professor in English Literature, University of Surrey, UK * Unlike other mechanistic or “how-to” guides, Di Leo’s Contemporary Literary and Cultural Theory is an ambitious and rigorous survey of theory from its ancient origins to the present that will be valuable for scholars seeking to understand new directions in (and against) theory as well as students encountering theoretical questions for the first time. Through careful explication and key quotations from primary texts, Di Leo nicely balances the need to provide both an informative—and, at times, reflective—discussion of High Theory, and a precise summary of those areas of theory such as LGBTQ+, Race and Justice, Biopolitics, and Ecocriticism that are most pressing for the field today. * Michael Malouf, George Mason University, USA *
