O knihe

The essays in this collection have enriched the practice of historicist inquiry by approaching conventional historical periods as moments of social and literary transformation. They have equally highlighted how questions about literature, whether directed at minute aesthetic details or wider innovations in literary form are often also questions about enduring political, cultural, environmental and ethical issues. The contributors in their papers equally seek to understand how the study of literature can assist mankind in addressing urgent ethical, social and political questions and to know whether literature can promote environmental and social justice. These issues have carefully been addressed here. The menu of the essays further presents us with rich palatable dishes of envisioned justice in the society and the environment in general presented by scholars in their own right , who have considerable experience in University teaching , research and publication and who have been actively involved in the dialectical discourse of literature and society.
