Abstract:

"Theories of the Text is the first comprehensive account of the changing practices of bibliography, textual criticism, and scholarly editing in the light of the diverse currents of contemporary critical theory." "A major intervention in the debate over textual criticism, Theories of the Text will be invaluable reading both for textual scholars and editors requiring an account of the theoretical alternatives that might guide their practical decisions, and for literary theorists unfamiliar with the implications of present textual debate for such common critical concepts as 'text', 'work', 'author', 'reader', 'interpretation', 'culture', and 'gender'."--BOOK JACKET.
