  • 1 Byron Criticism in the Age of Margaret Thatcher and Michael
    1 Byron Criticism in the age of Margaret Thatcher and Michael Foot (6053 words) By Jonathan Gross, DePaul University In Nice Work, David Lodge describes Robyn Penhurst‟s failed efforts to obtain a job at Cambridge University, her alma mater.1 Peter, a mediocre Ph.d. candidate plays it safe in a tight academic job market by writing a dissertation on the Romantic Sublime in Literature, while Robyn‟s post-structuralism so threatens her colleagues that she is dismissed. Lodge based the novel on a well known incident (the MacCabe affair) in which a young lecturer, Colin MacCabe, was denied the Cambridge equivalent of tenure in 1981 in a standoff between F.R. Leavis‟ acolytes and Frank Kermode. The two-day debate in the University Senate that followed this affair was only exacerbated by Margaret Thatcher‟s cuts to university research funds and tenure appointments.2 Two books came out the same year as David Lodge‟s portrait of Thatcher‟s England: Malcolm Kelsall‟s Byron’s Politics (1987) and Michael Foot‟s The Politics of Paradise: A Vindication of Byron (1988). These books I will argue, were no less determined by the particular conflicts and tensions of Thatcher‟s England, in particular the fight between labor and laissez faire economics. Michael Foot was the leader of the opposition Labour party from 1980-1983, a period in which he spoke on nuclear proliferation34, at Kelsall‟s own university in Cardiff, Wales. Foot opposed Margaret Thatcher‟s efforts to break up trade unions that governed mining in Wales, a constituency (Ebbw Vale) Foot represented in Parliament.

  • Academic Freedom, Political Interference, and Public Accountability: the Hong Kong Experience Johannes M
    Back to Volume Seven Contents Academic Freedom, Political Interference, and Public Accountability: The Hong Kong Experience Johannes M. M. Chan and Douglas Kerr Abstract In 2015, interference with academic freedom dominated public discourse in Hong Kong. This article provides an analysis of academic freedom in Hong Kong, addresses some systemic problems, and engages the debates between academic freedom and accountability of publicly funded institutions. It argues that the interference is not a one-off incident but forms part of a general trend toward a more restrictive regime of control over tertiary institutions in Hong Kong. Protection of academic freedom is of particular importance in such a restrictive political context. From Giordano Bruno, who was burned for preaching the heresy that the Earth was not the center of the universe, to the many unknown scholars tortured for speaking the truth during China’s Cultural Revolution, history is filled with sad pages documenting the suppression of academic freedom. Academic freedom is vulnerable in that academics and academic institutions have little but their own conscience and integrity to rely on in defending it, and that defense is usually at great personal cost. The threat to academic freedom is powerful and disturbing, since when academic freedom is not tolerated, let alone respected, other fundamental freedoms are also likely in peril. The Hong Kong Context This essay documents three cases in which academic freedom was jeopardized, and in one case seriously damaged, in Hong Kong. It is necessary to preface these accounts with a survey of what is at stake in the particular Hong Kong context.

  • An Essay on the Vicissitudes of Civil Society with Special Reference to Scotland in the Eighteenth Century
    An Essay on the Vicissitudes of Civil Society with Special Reference to Scotland in the Eighteenth Century MARVIN B. BECKER* The intention of this essay is to highlight certain general developments and problems confronting civil society in our own times and then to turn to the experience of the Scots during the eighteenth century. It was the Scot, Adam Ferguson, who was the first writer to discourse at length in English on the genesis and significance of the emergence of civil society. This he did in his remarkable An Essay on the History of Civil Society, published in 1767. As an account of the rise of civil society and as an analysis of its wellsprings in human nature, it has never been superseded. Anyone studying this topic would be well- advised to take into consideration Ferguson's analysis and his definition of the complex character of this model of social and economic arrangements. When he introduced the term, it was not without deep misgiving, for he saw clearly the defects, limitations, and even the vicissitudes of civil society. He was both an advocate of its economic benefits and a critic of the damage it might do to human character. From Ferguson to Marx there were both champions and critics, and Marx was not alone in prophesying its doom. Indeed, I shall suggest that in a curious way it was Marx, The Communist Manifesto,2 and the successive revolutions of 1848 that marked a decisive time for the fate of civil society.3 * Professor Emeritus of History, University of Michigan. 1.

  • The Future of the Literary Critic: on David Bromwich's Moral Imagination
    The Future of the Literary Critic: On David Bromwich’s Moral Imagination Daniel T. O’Hara symploke, Volume 22, Numbers 1-2, 2014, pp. 325-333 (Review) Published by University of Nebraska Press For additional information about this article https://muse.jhu.edu/article/566851 [ This content has been declared free to read by the pubisher during the COVID-19 pandemic. ] THE FUTURE OF THE LITERARY CRITIC: ON DAVID BROMWICH’S MORAL IMAGINATION1 DANIEL T. O’HARA The state of literary studies is not good, and it is not likely to improve. I call this situation deinstitutionalization. What I mean by this term can best be seen via a recent historical analogy. In the late 1980s, after a decade of various legal decisions and subsequent changes in policy, it was clear that the deinstitutionalization movement to stop warehousing the mentally ill and disabled (putting them in “cold storage,” as it was termed) had succeeded in changing the legal system and many attitudes. It was also clear it had failed to follow through on securing reliable government funding for the community half-way houses and centers that could keep off the streets those formerly incarcerated in large, impersonal, and cruelly neglectful and often abusive, institutions, whose abolishment represented real savings, in every sense. Having a cousin in one such institution since his childhood, a place that gave its distinguished British name, Penhurst, to a decision for its ultimate closing by the US Supreme Court, I had been a strong supporter of deinsti- tutionalization. Over time I became disillusioned by this failure to follow through, and by the winning lawyer in this case.
