Аннотация: AbstractResearching contemporary fiction in the academy raises uncomfortable and worrying questions about what we academics do. It also reveals that we have yet to come to a view – not even a dissensus range of views – about what it means to research contemporary fiction. In order to begin to develop such a dissensus, this manifesto outlines nine questions or problems for the study of contemporary fiction.Key words: Contemporary fictionliterary studiesgenreperiodarchivevalue judgementauthorial intentionMartin Heidegger Notes1 Ben Knights, ‘Intelligence and Interrogation: The Identity of the English Student’, Arts and Humanities in Higher Education, 4.1 (2005), pp. 33–52 (35).2 Ibid., p. 36.3 Ludwig Wittgenstein, Philosophical Investigations, trans.
