Synopsis

This introduction presents the eleven basic schools of twentieth-century literary theory and criticism in their historical and philosophical contexts.

A Comparison and Contrast Chart clearly delineates the differences and similarities among all the schools of criticism. This new edition offers a Cultural Studies chapter that explains three critical schools: Post Colonialism, Gender Studies, and African American Criticism. A newly updated glossary for all highlighted terms within the book is included.
