Review:
Synopsis:
Praise for the first edition:
'Ways of Reading is a valuable and immensely usable book ... more than fills a major gap.' – Literature & Language
'This is a clear and incisive introduction to main issues in the critical study of literature.' – Robin Jarvis, University of the West of England, UK
Ways of Reading provides the reader with the tools to analyze and interpret the meanings of literary and non-literary texts. Six sections, split into self-contained units with their own activities and notes for further reading, cover: * problem-solving approaches to texts * language, text, and context * poetic uses of language * figures of speech * story, narrative, and narration * looking beyond the text to authorship, audience, value and performance. This second edition has been extensively updated throughout with a fully revised introduction, new illustrations and two new units: literature in performance looks at oral poetry, drama and theatrical production, ways of reading non-literary text, considers examples from journalism as well as poltical and religious communication.
