A fascinating piece. It certainly prompts me to search out studies I have not previously read. But more importantly it also implicitly raises questions about disciplinarity and interdisciplinarity that need further attention as the crisis of the humanities deepens.

Putting a name to something that's been quietly clear for a while, @simoncd.bsky.social discusses a "Conservative Turn in Literary Studies." Not conservative at all in public electoral terms! Just an interest in disciplinary history paired with a back-to-basics emphasis on the literary as such.
