Both a controversial account of the transgressive turn in critical thought characteristic of the moral turmoil of the Twentieth Century, and a provocative study of maternal transfiguration in the author's own turn from Transgression, Against Transgression poses an urgent question for the current generation of literary critics. * Studies the origins of the contemporary proliferation of 'Transgression' in the compelling thought experiments of Georges Bataille, and follows its inauguration as a mode of legitimate critical practice via Michel Foucault. * Tracks the author's rejection of Transgression as a legitimate critical methodology following her mother's death and her own maternal transfiguration. * Shows how the po-faced claims of critical methodology can be exploded by genuinely personal reflection. * Considers the place of grief in the transformation of thought. * Argues against the model of the 'death of god' that underpins the transgressive turn in critical thought, and for a more courageous account of the inevitable return of numinous desires. * Considers the moral responsibility of the critical writer. * Traces the transfiguration of the author from transgressive daughter to maternal agent.
