This edited collection charts the evolution of literary scholarship in MFS Modern Fiction Studies—one of the most important international journals of literary, theoretical, and cultural studies—by showcasing eleven essays that appeared in the journal and were awarded the Margaret Church Memorial Prize between 1984 and 2022. Handpicked by editor Robert P. Marzec, these essays reflect the intellectual development of a discipline that has moved from close aesthetic and historical readings of literary texts to postmodernist, poststructuralist, postcolonialist, and media theory interpretations, toward an increasingly pluralist, globally attentive, and formally inventive criticism. In honor of Margaret Church, a founding editor of MFS and a scholar committed to the long view of literary study, The Modern Fiction Studies Margaret Church Memorial Prize Winners demonstrates how much the field of literary studies has grown and how much it still has to say.
