This book looks at many areas in the verbal arts that have been made peripheral in conventional criticism and aesthetics, and asks how, given their importance to their communities, they might be valued. Lynette Hunter examines written and spoken texts that don't fit the conventional patterns, such as e-mail, letters, diaries, writing and speaking from the Black diaspora, women's writing and electronic texts.
Lynette Hunter explores the concept of literary values in this collection of essays based on the Gresham lectures. As the separation between what used to be called 'high art' and 'popular culture' dissolves, these fascinating essays address the question of what to read and whom to listen to. Hunter delves into issues central to our notions of literary status and value.
