Marginal Forces/Cultural Centers
Tolson, Pynchon, and the Politics of the Canon
In this innovative and challenging book, Michael Bérubé shows how the reception of two postwar American writers illuminates-and calls into question-the functions of marginality and centrality and the role of literary critics in cultural transmission. Bérubé's juxtaposition of the reclusive and much-discussed novelist Thomas Pynchon and the neglected Melvin Tolson, the black poet who first sought to introduce African-American poetry to academic literary criticism, offers a new perspective on how canonization works in an age of institutional literary criticism.
