"Williams, more than any other theorist or critic, was my inspiration is grad school and beyond -- possibly because he was the most humanist of the Cultural Theory Gods, possibly just because he was the most lucid (and, possibly, those two things are related). Though other books of his had a greater impact in my thinking -- especially Television: Technology and Cultural Form and Marxism and Literature -- Keywords, which is essentially an OED of the major terms and ideas on Cultural Studies, was indispensible in helping understand just what he, and I, were trying to get at."
