Annotation

Paul Jay focuses his analysis on two strands of American criticism. The first attempts to revive what Jay insists is an anachronistic pragmatism derived from Emerson, James and Dewey. The second tends to reduce American criticism to a metadiscourse about the contingent grounds of knowledge.
