Doing English by Robert Eaglestone
Doing English presents the ideas and debates that shape how we do English today, explaining arguments about the value of literature, the canon, Shakespeare, theory, politics, and the subject itself. This immensely readable book is the ideal introduction to studying English Literature.'This new edition of Doing English is stunningly goodIt manages the tough feat of bettering the earlier editions, which were themselves an invaluable introduction to literary study. The introduction of new material not only updates but also adds new lines of thought and addresses fresh issues at the heart of the subject. Always written in admirably clear prose, it never oversimplifies, opening up the nature of the discipline, its practices and debates, for those engaging with it for the first time.' Barbara Bleiman, Education Consultant and Co-Editor of emagazine, the English and Media Centre
