Morrison examines the legacy of the modernist poetics of Ezra Pound and T.S. Eliot, as it relates to current theoretical orthodoxies, and traces its influence on the current crisis in post-structural literary theory.

Morrison concludes with a provocative analysis of deconstruction and the work of Paul de Man.
