J. HILLIS MILLER. LITERATURE, CULTURE, THEORY AND THE WORLD

---

J. Hillis Miller’s work is some of the most important for the study of literature and comparative literature from the end of the Second World War to the present. He is a distinct reader and writer, a critic, theorist, scholar and teacher of the highest order. Although associated with phenomenology and deconstruction, the so-called Geneva School and Yale School, Miller was above all a close and careful reader of works or texts in pœtry and prose, fiction and non-fiction. This collection explores Miller’s significant contributions to literature, culture, theory and the world, including literature, translation and culture in and between the United States and China.
