Description

Critical Terms for Literary Study by Frank Lentricchia and Thomas McLaughlin is an essential introduction to literary theory and criticism. First published in 1990, this landmark work has been significantly expanded with the addition of six new chapters that explore the cultural practices behind literary works. These new essays provide a concise history of key terms, critically examine the issues they raise, and demonstrate how to apply theoretical approaches to reading strategies. The result is an extraordinary introduction to the study of literature, written by some of the nation's most distinguished scholars. This book provides a comprehensive guide to the concepts that shape our understanding of literature, making it an invaluable resource for students and scholars alike.
