“The depth of knowledge, range and intellectual authority
contained in Living with Theory, combined with the leading
reputation of Professor Leitch, makes this book a key contribution
to the study, teaching, and evaluation of literature, theory, and
criticism. Rigorous and fair-minded, but ultimately affirmative,
Leitch’s book should be recommended reading on both
undergraduate and graduate courses.”

“Vincent Leitch is one of the leading cultural theorists
in the US. Engaging and readable, Living with Theory is firmly
grounded in cutting-edge debates about teaching theory, the
economics of academe, and the role of literary criticism in a
postmodern age. The book will appeal to a wide readership within
the academy and among general readers concerned with the nexus
between theory and politics.”
