About this book

Agon: Towards a Theory of Revisionism by Bloom, Harold. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9780195029451.

Expands on the controversial theory of revisionism presented in The Anxiety of Influence and A Map of Misreading. Blooms theory is based on a dialectic or contest involving opposing artistic and moral views which he particularly examines in relation to Romanticism, the American poetic tradition, Freuds theories, and what the author calls the American religion of competitiveness that he sees best exemplified by contemporary Jewry.
