A History of Literary Criticism and Theory
内容简介
A guide to the history of literary criticism from antiquity to the present day. An overview of the major movements, figures and texts of literary criticism. The cultural, historical, and philosophical background which enables students to see literary criticism in context. Starting with a comprehensive section on classical literary criticism, Habib shows how the central philosophical principles of Plato and Aristotle not only underlie their specific comments on literature, but also lay out the foundations and categories of much subsequent Western thought. Similarly, for each subsequent period, the book combines background information, whether on the philosophy of Locke, the history of the French Revolution, the political theories of Marx and Engels, or Freud's views on civilization, with coverage of the major figures and texts of literary-critical thought.
