Description
This study explores how an awareness of literary genre can illuminate works from diverse periods and styles. First published in 1982, it offers a historical survey of genre theory, tracing its development from ancient Greek rhetoricians to contemporary figures such as Frye and Todorov.
The book places particular emphasis on the ways in which comments on genre reflect underlying aesthetic attitudes, providing insight into the works of authors like Milton and Berryman. By examining these connections, readers can gain a deeper understanding of literary styles and their historical contexts.
