Harold Bloom is our greatest living literary critic. His wideranging critical writings have plumbed the depths of Romanticism (The Visionary Company), explored the anxiety caused by the influence of one generation of poets on another (Agon, The Anxiety of Influence), wrestled with the idea of a literary canon (The Western Canon), introduced Jacques Derrida and deconstruction to America (Deconstruction and Criticism), and explored the relationship between religion, especially Judaism, and literature (Kabbalah and Criticism, The Book of J).Bloom is indeed a party of one, a truly strong poet of his own mode of religiousliterary criticism, who, in a typically Emersonian manner, makes his own circumstances and sheds influences by incorporating them into his idiosyncratic theory.In this unprecedented fulllength study on Harold Bloom, Agata BielikRobson explores the many facets of Blooms critical writings and career. In his work, she argues, Bloom draws on a variety of disparate traditionsJudaism, gnosis, Romanticism, American pragmatism, and Freudianism, but also, especially recently, Victorian aestheticismthat comprise a dialectical, difficult whole in a constant quarrel with itself. Yet, this is precisely the image of 'lifeinantithesis,' which constitutes Blooms highest speculative achievement, she observes. The Saving Lie brings all these 'Blooms' together and, despite their own tendencies toward dissociation, lets them speak unisono: in one almost harmonious voice that will clearly utter the principles of a new speculative positionBlooms antithetical vitalism. This study of Bloom and his contributions will not soon be surpassed.
