Summary, etc | Critically, literary theory is a core subject in the study of literature. but theory— especially when it takes the form of ‘-isms’—can often be intimidating or boring for students. bennett & Royle have avoided simply giving potted summaries of ‘-isms’ and instead present brief essays on a range of key critical concepts, all of which have more or less familiar names. These concepts are put into practice through readings of particular literary texts.<br/><br/>Salient Features<br/>A new chapter on Film. This chapter explores the ways in which literature helps us to think about film, and, correspondingly, how studying film helps us to think about literature.<br/>A new chapter on Creative Writing .<br/>A new chapter on the Mutant: exploring general issues of mutation and mutability, including environmental issues, genetic engineering and cloning.<br/>A new chapter on War: exploring the questions 'what is war?', 'what is war literature?' and 'in what ways is literary or cultural theory itself at war?'<br/>All existing chapters updated and revised in light of recent developments in the field.<br/>Updated and expanded further reading sections. |
