English Pasts by Stefan Collini
Aimed at the non-specialist reader, this book presents a collection of essays. It covers such subjects as: the idea of 'the national past', the historian as social critic, the claims of Cultural Studies, the nature of academic 'research', the function of the literary biography, and the lives and ideas of popular figures.
fresh and topicalAt his best - and these essays show him at his best - Collini is one of the sharpest observers and most mordant critics in English academic life. * Felipe Fernandesz-Armesto, Weekend Review, The Independent *
