The Dark Side of Literacy: Literature and Learning Not to Read
Benjamin Bennett
Conducts a radical criticism of the concept of 'reading,' especially of the concept of 'the' reader, as these concepts are commonly used in literary criticism. This book sketches the historical provenance of 'the' reader, in an argument that includes discussions of Dante, Boccaccio, Cervantes, Marlowe, and German idealist philosophy.
