My hesitation has been produced by the paradigmatic shifts; some of the work in the book is not poetry and this is emphasised by the shift from words to graphics in ‘Root and Flight’. The only relevance of this academic fact is to highlight Cheek’s practice, which is to break the demarcation lines that define a discipline and discard any certainties of Aristotelian category.” —Allen Fisher, Necessary Business p.43.

Work in Progress
Dr. Harwood’s principal piece of work in progress is Pluralist Chaucer: Synthesis and Difference in Contemporary Critical Theory. In it, he attempts to dialecticize critical pluralism and political pluralism, arguing that only a pluralism of critical procedures can produce the historical specificity that political pluralism supposes. He is also working on two freestanding essays: an argument that the therapy employed by the narrator in Chaucer’s Book of the Duchess in effect anticipates Freud’s point in the famous Fort-Da passage in Beyond the Pleasure Principle, and a feminist reading of the Middle English Sir Orfeo.
