Examines how a divergent school of literary and cultural studies created the notion of French Theory, appropriated its ideas about text and texuality and altered the landscape of debate in mainstream academic discourse. The author traces the standardization of a once "rebellious" poststructuralism and presents some contemporary critical thinking that questions the assumptions of "Theory".
