Description: In his opening lecture at an Italian crime fiction conference Why Crime Fiction Matters in Melbourne in 2014 Stephen Knight reflected on the trajectory of scholarship in the field, which has gradually moved away from the broad-brush-stroke surveys of the genre towards more theoretically sophisticated studies and, more generally, a higher level of academic engagement to mirror crime's location in the literary marketplace. The move, he concluded, has been away from connoisseurship towards scholarship. When Intellect commissioned us immediately that we should need to manoeuvre ourselves strategically in this light, to place ourselves at a point somewhere on this line with connoisseurship at one end and scholarship at the other.
