Twenty-five essays and reviews not previously collected, most of which were written before 1970, and eight of which are appearing in English for the first time. Valuable for the insights they afford into his development as a critic the essays are also significant in addressing de Man's consistent views of romanticism, modernism and the dilemmas central to liturature in recent centuries.

Paul de Man (1919-1983) held appointments at Cornell, Johns Hopkins, the University of Zurich, and Yale. Among his books are Aesthetic Ideology (1996), The Resistance to Theory (1986), Blindness and Insight (1983), and Allegories of Reading (1979).
