Summary: Erudite, judicious, elegant
Comment: JGA Pocock's classic collection of essays, primarily encompassing the early modern world, recognize fully the importance of words as historical actors, and as analytic tools to understand arguments as they lay without doing antiquarian OR materialist violence to texts. His interest in discursive fields and the early modern text is more epistemologically rigorous than cultural studies, and more accessible than a great deal of poststructuralist work in this area. The general reader may not be interested in my technical comments, since plainly the essays in this volume are a joy to read for their own sake. Either theoretically or via the crystal-clear style of the author, Pocock leaves a reader coming away newly aware that "Language is Power."
