Economics is often used in literary studies, but rarely free market economics. Austrian economics, with its emphasis on subjective value (Menger), human action (Mises), spontaneous order and knowledge (Hayek), and entrepreneurship (Kirzner), seems a particularly fruitful source of ideas for literary studies.

Why the Silence?
If regular readers are wondering why I have been increasingly spotty on my postings, it is because I have becoming increasingly busy with looking a job and with working on several projects with August deadlines, and I am working on a play. Much of my reading has involved non-Austrian economists, and so there has been little in that realm to transform into literary insights. I hope I can get back to Austrian economics and literature soon. Of course, since several upcoming projects do involve Austrian economist and literature, I will no doubt have much more to discuss here soon!
