This is a question for Maurice...would you put your position, purely in
terms of your rejection of current critical methodology, close to that of
Jakob van Bruggen ? What I found fascinating about his critique was that it
was almost totally composed of quotes by current critics of their own
method; interspersed with quotes from Kilpatrick, Eliot. In terms of where
he ends up as to the type of text he chooses, I can't say that I'm sure what
he holds.
