"In this new book, Paul Dawson demonstrates that the discipline of Creative Writing developed as a series of pedagogic responses to the long-standing 'crisis' in Literary Studies. He traces the emergence of Creative Writing alongside the New Criticism in American universities; examines the writing workshop in relation to theories of creativity and literary criticism; and analyses the evolution of Creative Writing pedagogy alongside and in response to the rise of 'Theory' in America, England, and Australia."--BOOK JACKET.
