Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. A defense and celebration of the discipline of literary studies and its most distinctive practiceclose reading. Does literary criticism offer truths about the world? In this book, Jonathan Kramnick explains literary criticisms distinctive approach to knowledge and its disciplinary rationale…by zeroing in on its singular method: close reading. Close reading is the fields way of pursuing arguments and advancing knowledgethe crucial craft and skill that it imparts to students. For Kramnick, close reading is also a creative, transformative, and immersive writing practice that fosters a unique kind of ecologically-minded engagement with the world. Drawing on recent examples of literary criticism, Kramnick unpacks the art of in-text quotations and other reading methods, advocating for them as a valuable form of humanistic expertise worthy of a prominent place within a multi-disciplinary university. As the humanities fight for survival in contemporary higher education, the study of literature doesnt need more plans for reform. Rather, it needs a defense of the work already being done and an account of why it should flourish. This is what Criticism and Truth offers, in vivid and portable form. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Paperback. Condition: New. A defense and celebration of the discipline of literary studies and its most distinctive practice-close reading. Does literary criticism offer truths about the world? In Criticism and Truth, Jonathan Kramnick offers a new and surprising account of criticism's power by zeroing in on its singular method:… close reading. Long recognized as the distinctive technique of literary studies, close reading is the critic's way of pursuing arguments and advancing knowledge, as well as the primary skill taught in the English major. But it is also more than that-a creative, immersive, and transformative writing practice that fosters a unique kind of engagement with the world. Drawing on the rich and varied landscape of contemporary criticism, Kramnick changes how we think about the basic tools of literary analysis, including the art of in-text quotation, summary, and other reading methods, helping us to see them as an invaluable form of humanistic expertise. Criticism and Truth is a call to arms, making a powerful case for the necessity of both literature and criticism within a multidisciplinary university. As the humanities fight for survival in contemporary higher education, the study of literature doesn't need more plans for reform. Rather, it needs a defense of the work already being done and an account of why it should flourish. This is what Criticism and Truth offers, in vivid and portable form.
