    • Abstract:
      The article discusses scholars' criticism of and resistance against literary studies. Topics include funding from the Danish National Research Foundation for a literary-studies project led by English professor Rita Felski, questions regarding whether literary criticism should always have a political aim, and Lisa Ruddick's belief that the problem with literary critics is that they tend to condemn ideas and beliefs as humanist.
