On Writings of a Literary History of Contemporary, or What is or Was “the Contemporary”, and should we be calling it that?
Margaret-Anne Hutton
“The contemporary” is an established term in a range of scholarly and disciplinary discourses, but what does it mean? Interweaving sections drawn from an (apparently) hypothetical and oxymoronic project — the writing of a literary history of “the contemporary”— with a critical analysis of the term(s) “the contemporary” and “contemporary” in the work of a range of theorists, Margaret-Anne Hutton sets out to expose the inconsistencies and ambiguities in its terminological usage, and to unpick some of the knots which bind the substantive and adjective.
