Talk amongst yourselves. Esp "resolutely emotional endeavor"

[Mark Kohut]

The Limits of Critique begins by redescribing critique as a literary
version of what the philosopher Paul Ricoeur calls the “hermeneutics
of suspicion.” To read suspiciously is to insist that the text’s real
meaning always lies hidden. By redefining critique as a hermeneutics
of suspicion, Felski demonstrates that it is not an exclusively
intellectual enterprise. Instead, critique’s dispassion and detachment
mark it as a resolutely emotional endeavor.
