“P art of the appeal of this job,” Stanley Fish told The Chronicle after he became dean of liberal arts at the University of Illinois at Chicago, “was the chance to make a larger difference.” And make a difference he did, attracting scholars with reputations as notable as his own to the regional public university. Mr. Fish, a literary theorist who had spent 14 years teaching English and law at Duke University, retired from Chicago after five years. He later taught law at Florida International University. These days, still a prolific writer at 78, he’s a visiting professor at Yeshiva University’s law school.
