I can't find Eagleton's book right now, but I distinctly remember he said in the preface that he wasn't engaging text, but a mood.

To say that "pomoists" don't engage any actual texts is surreal. I just turned to a random page (269) of Of Grammatology and see cites of Homer and Rousseau. Or p. 132, a long engagement with Levi-Strauss. Foucault is one text after another. Ditto Butler. What are you talking about?

^^^^^ CB: Hey, lets have another LBO-talk seminar on Judith Butler, like we did way back when, where everybody bought her _text_ and talked about her exact words.

And is there or is there not heterosexual instinct ?
