The Feral Issue

ns 73-74 | Fall 2009/Spring 2010

The "Feral Issue" presents work by a range of people, from those who have been doing animal studies all along to those newly exploring the field. If it has a leaning, it is to build a cultural materialist account of animals in our world. We hope that the writing here will give our readers a sense of what animal studies is and where it's going, and also add some new voices to its course.

Errata

In the minnesota review n.s. 63-4, the author of "Hunter’s Crossing" was misidentified as Amy Day Wilkerson. Her name is actually Amy Day Wilkinson. We sincerely apologize for this error and would like to announce that "Hunter's Crossing" has been nominated for a Pushcart Prize.

We also apologize for our oversight in crediting the Fiction and Poetry Interns for n.s. 63-4. May Hall's assistants were James Crowley, Allison Kerbel, and Lauren Leatherman. Jim Daniels' assistant was Carolyn Elliott.

Critics at Work
ed. Jeffrey J. Williams.

Critics at Work offers a guided tour through the central, sometimes confusing and frequently controversial developments in contemporary literary and cultural criticism. The tour guides, however, are not distant observers but have been primary participants in those developments, and they report on theory, cultural studies, the literary canon, the recent focus on race, sexuality, and other identities, the state of the univerisity, and the role of the intellectual. Throughout, they consider the not always easy negotiation of politics and culture.
