9780713452907: Modern Literary Theory: A Comparative Introduction

Synopsis

Since the publication of the first edition of this book, literary theory is a field which has expanded and the theory has become a subject in its own right. New schools of theory have come into prominence and the editors of this work have continued to emphasize cross-reference and comparison. This edition contains new chapters which cover reading and interpretation - hermeneutics, phenomenology, reception theory - and feminist literary theory. Ann Jefferson is the author of "The Nouveau Roman and the Poetics of Fiction" (CUP, 1980) and David Robey is the editor of "Structuralism - An Introduction" (Clarendon Press, 1983).
