Summary: Too often academic critical writing seems to annihilate what it analyses. Too often it brings pre-packaged language to bear on works whose whole essence and aim is to change the ways in which we see and describe our world. How, then, to write criticism? This text gathers together who strive to find answers to this dilemma.
