 Introduction
at home in english

Although since the era of Thomas Kuhn the natural sciences have inspired
attempts to historicize their basic epistemological assumptions, research
protocols, and social practices, we continue to await, Lorraine Daston has
recently lamented, comparable self-­reflection from and on behalf of human-
ists: accounts of “what they do” and “how they know what they know.”1
In Loving Literature I aim to help English studies contribute to the project
that Daston calls for. More precisely, I aim to suggest why self-­reflection on
our ways of knowing will not suffice when we seek to assess English pro-
fessors’ characteristic mode of practicing humanist study: I aim to honor,
instead, the central role that affective labor—­our ways of feeling, then, as
well as knowing—­has been assigned within English studies, and I aim to
consider how through our cooperation with that assignment we have come
to inhabit a profession that is paradoxically beholden to statements of per-
sonal connection. Loving Literature turns to literary studies’ eighteenth-­and
nineteenth-­century prehistory—­to early definitions of literariness, to histo-
ries of criticism, canonicity, literary history, and “heritage,” and, above all,
to the emergence during this period of new etiquettes of literary appreci-
ation—­so as to examine how it has come to be that those of us for whom
English is a line of work are also called upon to love literature and to ensure
that others do so too.
Following Max Weber, William Clark states that the “modern bureau-
cratic distinction allowing the formation of a public-­professional, expert
self, and its insulation from the interests and hobbies of the amateur, pri-
vate self, lies in the distinction between office and home.”2 The freewheeling
2 introduction

ways of many salaried, professional practitioners of English studies, how-

ever, confound that dichotomy and the norms it upholds. Those who are
employed at all (a population that diminished over the years in which I
wrote this book, as humanities departments downsized and their labor force
became increasingly casualized) must make their peace with the fact that
viewed from the outside their work does not look like work. For those pro-
fessing English, it is all in a day’s work to reread the novel one has read for
pleasure and convert it into material for a class or an article. Many of us
regularly engage in bringing our work home or, worse, bringing our home
to work—­as when we make last year’s bedtime reading the object of analysis
for this year’s seminar and thereby rearrange social space so that the bed-
room abuts on the classroom. Without exactly intending this state of affairs,
we seem to have more personal time in our working day than others do,
though the downside to such exemption from the time discipline that would
have us clocking in and clocking out is that the parameters that ought to
delimit the workload and working hours within our industry tend to be
treated as though they might be expanded almost infinitely.3
Taking a long view, auto-­ethnographers of our discipline have often de-
lineated the history of English studies over the last century and a half as
the story of how each new call for the professionalization that might bet-
ter secure the English professor’s claim to expertise has been followed, in
another swing of the pendulum, by a new round of amateur envy. Carol
Atherton engages along these lines the equivocal procedures of the late
nineteenth-­century campaigners who established English literature as an
academic specialty within the English universities. Even as those campaign-
ers insisted that, distinguished as their subject was by disinterested, ratio-
nalized methods of inquiry, it was as “susceptible of serious, methodical,
and profitable treatment as history itself,” they could not, Atherton notes, re-
linquish their investments in this subject’s moral benefits. Aspiring to have
things two ways, they presented English both as a knowledge practice and
as an instrument of pastoral care and character building. Given this dualistic
setup, it is understandable that our pursuits of rigor or campaigns for a new
professionalism have often been shadowed by expressions of nostalgia for
a past ostensibly readier to acknowledge that the project of really under-
standing literature necessarily eludes the grasp of expert cultures—­readier
to acknowledge that literature involves readers’ hearts as well as minds, and
their sensibility as well as training.4
Two fictions that influenced the late twentieth-­century public’s percep-
tions of schooling in English exemplify this tendency to identify literary
 at home in english 3

studies with the love of the subject and to identify that love with amateurs
not yet subjected to the affective deformation that supposedly comes with
formal education. The Victorianist protagonists of A. S. Byatt’s 1990 novel
Possession, one of them still seeking employment as a university teacher, the
other having successfully secured her professional position, begin to fall in
love when they discover that for all their methodological and socioeconomic
differences they had alike decided to “work” in their professional lives as
researchers on “what could survive our education,” on the few poems that
“stayed alive.” People who “work” on poetry must resign themselves to a
position of moral compromise, Byatt intimates via this passage of dialogue,
because their very work as professional researchers and educators puts that
poetry at risk.5 In the 1989 Peter Weir film Dead Poets Society, the lesson plan
that the newly hired English teacher John Keating prepares for his first day
of class at Weldon Academy seems designed to avert that risk: it requires
Keating, played by Robin Williams, to lead his bemused students out of their
classroom and out of his workplace, while he recites Robert Herrick and
Walt Whitman and urges the class to take up arms against “armies of aca-
demics . . . measuring poetry.”6 (This free spirit, needless to say, will soon
be stifled by an institution that cannot countenance such independence
of mind.) “The very atmosphere of the class-­room, with its paraphernalia
of study, is one in which the wings of poesy cannot readily beat,” stated
the Newbolt Report on The Teaching of English in England, the 1921 docu-
ment of the campaign that eventually succeeded in installing imaginative
literature—­rather than English composition exclusively—­at the center of
Britain’s national education system. It is as though Mr. Keating misread the
Newbolt Committee and took a wistful aside as the core of their message.7
Still, an equally plausible way to describe the boundary confusion that
shapes the practice of literary study would be to invert the dynamic that
Mr. Keating’s extramural English class and his embrace of his outsider sta-
tus illustrate. We might say, instead, that the English professor’s affective
life is supposed to slop over onto her job; it’s all in a day’s work when it
does. I don’t believe that the equation between professionalization and the
suppression of feeling that A. S. Byatt and Peter Weir intimate suffices as a
description of how we experience our working lives. My experience does
not suggest to me that the personal is repressed when departments of English
go about their ostensibly clinical official business. For our classes—­even the
graduate seminars—­regularly come to be invested, as Lauren Berlant has
noted, with “anxieties and needs for mirroring one normally associates
with the institutions of privacy and domestic intimacy,” and those intimacy
4 introduction

expectations prompt all concerned, at significant cost in an era of soaring

student-­teacher ratios, to think of teaching and learning as processes that
must, by definition, involve personal contact. A recent New York Times Book
Review essay by Dean Bakopoulos confirms Berlant’s account as it wags a
finger at the professorate who have centered the curriculum on theory and
historical contexts and who have thereby marginalized their real subject,
reading as a “process of seduction.”8 Eve Sedgwick once quipped that the
scene of liberal arts education represents an “erogenous zone” for the acad-
emy: a statement that registers how the literary profession especially defines
itself around (a properly administered) pleasure and (a properly disciplined)
sensitivity and how this line of work mandates as much as represses a “per-
sonal touch.” In characterizing our vocation in this puckish way, Sedgwick
captured the embarrassment that such oddly public practices of intimacy
and this oddly intimate profession can occasion.9
How did literary pedagogy and criticism end up located in so eccentric
a relationship to post-­Enlightenment culture’s conventional and gendered
schema for segregating “personal life” from the public sphere, feeling from
knowing, and recreation from labor? Approaching that question from di-
verse angles, the chapters composing this book engage with a variety of the
cultural forms in which English literature was transmitted during the eigh-
teenth and nineteenth centuries, in which literature’s distinctiveness from
other kinds of discourse was demarcated, and which people used to ponder
their relationship with it: treatises on taste, belletristic appreciations, lives
and editions “of the poets,” early literary histories, projects of bibliography
and bibliophilia, commonplace books, albums of friendship, accounts of
keep-­fit regimens of rereading, and travelogues mapping authors’ “homes
and haunts,” among other things. These chapters span a period in British
cultural history that extends from the mid-­eighteenth to the mid-­nineteenth
century. The records of reading that center my first and second chapters
thus originate from decades that saw the debut in provincial dissenting
academies and in the Scottish universities of new lectures on “rhetoric and
belles-­lettres”; those decades also saw important changes in the marketplace
of print, as the copyright decisions underwriting new accounts of vernacu-
lar literature as a national property facilitated the appearance in that mar-
ketplace of multivolume, canon-­making sets of “the British poets.” By the
time I wind up my story in chapter 6 of this book my subjects are contem-
porary with the mid-­nineteenth-­century founding at the British universities
of dedicated chairs in the subject henceforth known as “English literature”
(and renaming of chairs formerly dedicated to rhetoric and belles lettres):
 at home in english 5

the former development was engendered in part by new government poli-

cies that required candidates for the civil service to be evaluated and ranked
through a system of formal examinations, including those testing their
knowledge of literary history. Collectively these chapters aim to outline
how since its late eighteenth-­century/early nineteenth-­century reinvention,
also the inaugural moment of its disciplinization, “English literature” has
always been something more than an object of study, even for the archi-
tects of that disciplinization. It has also been implicated in its audiences’ li-
bidinal dramas and in their understandings of their families and their erotic
histories—­hence English studies’ eccentric relation to the norms of pub-
licness and impersonality that seem to govern other knowledge-­producing
occupations. To ponder this implication, Loving Literature navigates among
poetics, the history of aesthetics, and book history, on the one hand, and the
histories of psychology, sexuality, and the family, on the other. It surveys the
redefinitions of literary experience—­and of the interior spaces of the mind
and home—­that had to occur in order for the love of literature to become
part of English studies’ normal science.

The account a single book can provide of how that state of affairs came to
be will necessarily be circumscribed. This history of the literary affections
cannot directly address, though I hope it illuminates, the later nineteenth-­
century developments and debates that helped lay the ground for the love
troubles still vexing English in the university setting. There are, for example,
the materials set out in Ian Hunter’s Culture and Government, which describe
how English pedagogy, by virtue of its absorption of romantic norms of
individual correction through self-­expression, emerged in the late Victorian
schoolroom as the privileged embodiment of liberal technologies of moral
supervision: Hunter’s materials might be seen as forming a prequel of
sorts to Berlant’s and Sedgwick’s discussions of the role of the personal
touch in pedagogic practice.10 It is worth briefly mentioning, in addition,
the intriguing fact that in the late nineteenth century some commentators
who resisted English’s absorption by the universities pointed to the success
of the National Home Reading Union, founded in 1889, as proof that the
Arnoldian and Ruskinian project of installing a literary sensibility in the
largest possible constituency was already under way without the academy’s
help (a fact about the discipline’s prehistory that indexes the longevity of
the ongoing rivalry between the classroom and book club, between, for ex-
ample, e n g 3 2 3 h 1 f , Jane Austen and Her Contemporaries, and the Toronto
6 introduction

chapter of the Jane Austen Society of North America, and makes one wonder
how much the aura exercised by the home might color our institutional
practices even now).11 Also noteworthy is the parting of the ways that oc-
curred at this same time between historians and professors of literature (the
same people frequently held both offices earlier in the century), when the
former group began to define itself in relationship to an “objectivity ques-
tion” and to norms of value-­free scientific investigation—­norms that, even
in the heyday of philology, never seemed as compelling for literary studies.12
As I have indicated, however, this book engages an earlier moment, before
English named an educational program, and before the school system could
claim anything like the sway that would later belong to it as the primary in-
stitution overseeing the transmission of the literary heritage and regulating
the population’s access to the cultural capital with which that literary heri-
tage was freighted. During the century I examine, the project of canon for-
mation was a more diversely sanctioned enterprise; the literary subjectivity
assembled through encounters with that recommended reading flourished
in multiple cultural locales.13 Accordingly, I treat schooling only incidentally
here (the secret poetry clubs frequented by some eighteenth-­century Oxford
undergraduates engage me in chapter 2; in chapter 4 I investigate the
role of rereading in both our classroom practices and nineteenth-­century
definitions of canonicity). My emphasis falls instead on how the rearrange-
ments of the discursive field that produce a new idea of literature for the
later eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries also represent a watershed
in the history of the emotions and intimate life. To an extent that previous
work on the historicity of literature fails to acknowledge, the foundational
texts of criticism, aesthetic theory, and literary history and biography that
were generated during these decades were inflected by the imperatives of a
long era of sensibility.14 Though I often make a point here of looking beyond
the public (masculine) face of the emergent discipline of English studies,
one doesn’t need to stray much beyond the canonical texts by figures like
Samuel Johnson, Thomas Warton, or Samuel Taylor Coleridge to discover
traces of how that new idea of literature was intimately experienced. Those
texts not only document the historicity of concepts of the literary, they also
show (not least by revealing some of the architects of literary criticism and
literary study to have been closet men of feeling) that this history cannot be
understood apart from the history of emotional practice.
I thus return to those texts in part to explore how British culture came to
accede to an arrangement, now almost too familiar to be visible, that had lit-
erature become available to readers first and foremost as private, passional
 at home in english 7

persons rather than as members of a rational, civic-­minded public. (Perhaps

too sweepingly, Simon During dates to the 1760s “a fissure between litera-
ture and civility.”)15 But because the relationality of the reader to her reading
matter is one of my principal fields of investigation, my subject also ends up
being the species of sociably minded animism that readers indulge when
they designedly make a home with romantic poetry or keep company with
their favorite authors—­whenever they conceive of literature as something
more than an object that might instruct or move them or prompt their ad-
miration. The practices of personification that underwrite an alternative ac-
count of literature’s ontology, an account of literature as an object soliciting
its audiences’ involvement and affection and fidelity, are a recurrent topic in
this book.16 Sometimes I explore too resistances to this arrangement. As we
shall see, certain founding figures of modern literary criticism give signs of
having had an intensely vexed, love-­hate relationship to literary love.
An important body of scholarship emerged in the 1980s and 1990s to
remind English studies of the historical mutability of the meanings of its
keyword “literature.” It is now part of our disciplinary common sense that
eighteenth-­ and nineteenth-­century Anglo-­American culture reinvented “lit-
erature” as a new sort of object of study, appreciation, marketing, and peda-
gogy. Of course, the rearrangement of the field of writing that this process
entailed was not a punctual event, and it is tricky to track accordingly.17
When James Boswell stated in 1791 that the “love of literature” did not fail
Samuel Johnson on his deathbed, he used “literature” in older senses of
the term that either designated a particular aptitude, literacy, or provided a
synonym for erudition or learning in general. Boswell was indicating that
the dying Johnson continued to read and to study. However, Boswell’s culti-
vation of the role of fan and insistence on revering his favorite author, even
during the latter’s lifetime, as a quasi-­imaginary being (a ghost or fictional
character, who had, Boswell asserted, “grown up in my fancy into a kind of
mysterious veneration”) speak volumes about the new uses to which “litera-
ture” was already being harnessed.18 The anonymously published Extracts
from the Diary of a Lover of Literature (1810), in which one Thomas Green
went public with his feelings about his reading matter, illuminates those
uses as well. The Extracts do this only in part by recording what the epony-
mous Lover reads: although Paradise Lost and Joseph Andrews form part of
his “miscellaneous course of reading,” these are ranged alongside political
writings (Edmund Burke’s and the Abbé Barruel’s discussions of the origin
of the French Revolution) that to twenty-­first-­century audiences might seem
deficient in the imagination we require of instances of literariness. Equally
8 introduction

significant is the Lover’s evident conviction that his affective responses to

his reading are worthy of remark, that it matters, for instance, that to the
“fascinating influence” of the Arabian Nights’ Entertainment he finds himself
“quite ductile,” that “Towered Cities please us then” is for him the most
pleasing line in Milton’s “L’Allegro” (he compares it the “animating” effects
of a change from minor to major keys in “some entrancing Symphony”),
or that he feels mournful when he contemplates his inability to recapture
the hallucinatory intensity of his first youthful reading of Robinson Crusoe.19
Such observations suggest how the emergence during the long era of sensi-
bility of a new understanding of literature was necessarily accompanied by
the emergence of the form of subjecthood that During has called “literary
subjectivity”—­a kind of work on the self that proceeds through the psycho-
logical intensities that reading creates and that begins with a “recognition of
oneself as a distinct type who takes literature seriously.”20
The Extracts also brings to view other criteria for marking off literature’s
boundaries that will be mobilized in the new literary era. The fact that the
Lover tends to write about old books rather than the newly published is
notable, given a definition of literature as writing that “signifies the cultural
heritage versus writing deemed merely topical.”21 (This definition also hints,
of course, at how in the nineteenth century especially “English” would oper-
ate in the wider culture as an apparatus for the transmission of national feel-
ing.) And another defining trait of the literary discernible here seems worth
flagging for my argumentative purposes. In the Extracts the Lover’s reading
and commenting on books are presented as ends in themselves. And, indeed,
texts that were works of “literature” (texts either written or recast and re-
appraised in those terms) required their readers to eschew in these special
cases the practices of text indexing and epitomizing, of gutting for content,
and “digesting,” that before the eighteenth century had so often defined all
kinds of reading. With those works a different relation was required. In
the newer account, what literature isn’t, is something to be used. We don’t
treat literature as a thing but as a person: lovers of literature construct the
aesthetic relation as though it put them in the presence of other people
and with the understanding that the ethical relations so conjured must not
be instrumentalized. The case may well be different with the writing desig-
nated as the belles lettres—­to use the French rubric that nineteenth-­century
English studies ended up rejecting. Belles lettres may solicit admiration, as
a requisite homage to the beauty that is enshrined in their very name (an
egregiously French name at that). But literature, something to be taken per-
sonally by definition, demands love.22
 at home in english 9

Literature so defined emerges, as Trevor Ross’s 1998 history of canonic-

ity outlined, when an earlier “rhetorical culture” in which texts had served
as instruments of social power, and old texts had been valued only as a
backdrop to ongoing cultural production, began to give way to a cultural
arrangement centered on “appreciation”: on the close, historically sensitive
but tasteful reading of “classics,” or on a devoted engagement with con-
temporary writers of genius who (as geniuses, a breed apart) occupied an
aesthetic realm positioned at a distance from worldly conflicts.23 Registering
the fallout from a broader realignment of the older divisions of knowledge,
this new category of writing, a narrowed canon of especially valuable, ex-
clusively imaginative works, would in addition come to exclude texts ad-
dressed primarily to the understanding—­the science, philosophy, history,
and politics that counted as “literature” so long as that rubric designated
erudition in general. The later eighteenth century’s investment in a notion
of the literary as, instead, that idiom which the passions made their own
is apparent in the praise that in 1791 the philosopher Thomas Reid be-
stowed on the lectures on rhetoric George Jardine was then delivering to
his students at the University of Glasgow: “No subjects are likely to be more
interesting to young minds, at a time when their taste and feelings are be-
ginning to open.” Reid also intimates here that English really is a young
person’s subject.24 “How frosty is the feeling associated with [the] names
[of Archimedes and Galileo] . . . by comparison with that which . . . many a
young innocent girl . . . cherishes in her heart for the name and person of
Shakspeare,” Thomas De Quincey put it in 1839 in a statement about canon
love that doubles as an exercise in mapping the disciplines: “How different,
how peculiar, is the interest which attends the great poets who have made
themselves necessary to the human heart.”25
Previous historicist scholarship has adopted various approaches to assess
the cultural work it took to naturalize this modern, narrowed, and aestheti-
cized sense of “literature.” Sometimes this scholarship has produced, for
instance, an account of the domestic politics of the vernacular canon: an ac-
count of how booksellers’, editors’, and anthologists’ new canon of English
serviced the needs of a rising middle class eager to exploit a new appara-
tus for the distribution of social distinction and cultural capital.26 At other
times, it has focused on demonstrating how instrumental the institution of
English was both for the work of British national unification and for the
extension of the domain of standard English under the auspices of colonial-
ism.27 Still other scholars have told the story, often expressing regret for the
wrong turns that were taken, of how a belletristic, aestheticized concept
