"The Literary Agenda is a series of short polemical monographs about the importance of literature and of reading in the wider world and about the state of literary education inside schools and universities. The category of 'the literary' has always been contentious. What is clear, however, is how increasingly it is dismissed or is unrecognised as a way of thinking or an arena for thought. It is sceptically challenged from within, for exa ..."

"The Literary Agenda Philip Davis ... But the slow reality and careful authority of the reading from out of the cave made me patient for what seemed even in its quirkiness on the verge of the important. ... of the deep south in 'lay my burden down, lay my-ah burden down'. Then suddenly this developed from lay my burden down—this quiet and gentle shock: See my baby lay his head on a down pillow, Pigeons flurrying on the boulevards. L ..."

"In short, I include thinking that has arisen out of work I have previously done on Shakespeare, the Victorians, Samuel Johnson, Bernard Malamud, and various aspects of the experience of reading, in an attempt at summation of a reading life. But for different people, of course, there must be different authors and different books that matter, and different places of emphasis within them. There is, rightly, a wide variety of literatur ..."

"Philip Davis tells the story of Bernard Malamud (1914-1986), the self-made son of poor Jewish immigrants who went on to become one of the foremost novelists and short-story writers of the post-war period. The time is ripe for a revival of interest in a man who at the peak of his success stood alongside Saul Bellow and Philip Roth in the ranks of Jewish American writers. Nothing came easily to Malamud: his family was poor, his mother pr ..."

"... that Aristotle would have answered them'. But what is more: 'if they are questions which could not occur in Aristotle's age, he still answers them'. For Newman concludes, 'In one respect he knows more than Aristotle, because in new emergencies after the time of Aristotle, he can and does answer what Aristotle would have answered, but for the want of opportunity did not' (quoted by Ian Kerr in the foreword to Newman's Essay on t ..."

"It was said of the learned Bishop Sanderson, that, when he was preparing his lectures, he hesitated so much, and rejected so often, that, at the time of reading, he was often forced to produce, not what was best, but what happened to be at hand. ... For Hebraism as Arnold defines it Culture and Anarchy, in opposition to Hellenism, puts conscience before consciousness, the rigour of moral rules and laws before the flexibility of dis ..."

"But that it would have been better for me if my wife could have helped me more, and shared the many thoughts in which I had no partner; ... It is the world of realism inhabited by such as Tolstoy's Levin in Anna Karenina, living a sort of everyman's life ... Whatever the ideas held beforehand, or the names given from outside, it is different inside – the golden rule of nineteenth-century experiential realism."

"Writing The Fixer had cost Malamud dearly. After the initial excitement of the prizes and the sales, there was finally only one thing that reconciled him to a novel that he found almost too painful to look back at. 'For a long time I could not face the book, then made peace with it particularly after my experience in Hungary' (LC II 12.3). He had refused to go to Hungary during the making of the film of The Fixer, which appeared in ..."
