Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Understanding modern literary theory is a challenge even for the erudite individual. The Smart Student's Guide to Modern Literary Theory will clear away most of the jargon and convoluted prose found in essays and texts on theory. If you need detailed help on theories like deconstruction, Marxism, feminism, Russian Formalism, structuralism, archetypal criticism, postmodernism, New Criticism, phenomenology, and Reader-Response criticism, this book will prove invaluable to literature majors (especially those taking a course in Literary Theory), and students of history and philosophy. More than thirty theorists are covered, including but not limited to) T. Adorno, L. Althusser, M. Bakhtin, R. Barthes, J. Baudrillard, M. Beardsley, W. Benjamin, H. Cixous, S. de Beauvoir, P. de Man, J. Derrida, F. de Saussure, S. Fish, M. Foucault, N. Frye, H. Gadamer, M. Heidegger, E. Husserl, L. Irigaray, W. Iser, J. Kristeva, J. Lacan, C-L. Strauss, J-F. Lyotard, K. Marx, and V. Shklovsky. Each of these theorists is introduced in a Context that places him/her in a continuum of history, philosophy, literature, and politics. A Summary of chosen well-anthologized essays and excerpted chapters follows that highlights the text on a near paragraph by paragraph basis. Next is an Analysis that provides a full linguistic, stylistic, and logical interpretation. (this is the part that your professors will be surprised that you know). Finally there is a wrap-up Essay Question of the type that you might find on an exam or can use as a starting point for a research project. And of course there is a lengthy multi-paragraph response. The prose style is suitable for both undergraduate and graduate students. High school and college/university instructors will find this book as a useful aid for lesson planning. Finally, you need not even be a student enrolled in a formal course to benefit. For those who are out of school and have an intellectual bent, you will discover just what all the hoopla is about the next time someone else starts discussing theory and you want to join in. Now you can. The Smart Student's Guide to Modern Literary Theory is no easy read. It is indeed a challenge, but the knowledge contained herein is part of what it means to know why and how literature affects us the way it does.

Book Synopsis Oral and Literary Continuities in Modern Tibetan Literature by : Lama Jabb
Download or read book Oral and Literary Continuities in Modern Tibetan Literature written by Lama Jabb and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2015-06-10 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first book-length study to appear in English on the literary, cultural and political roots of modern Tibetan literature. While existing scholarship on modern Tibetan writing takes the 1980s as its point of “birth” and presents this period as marking a “rupture” with traditional forms of literature, this book goes beyond such an interpretation by foregrounding instead the persistence of Tibet’s artistic past and oral traditions in the literary creativity of the present. While acknowledging the innovative features of modern Tibetan literary creation, it draws attention to the hitherto neglected aspects of continuity within the new. This study explores the endurance of genres, styles, concepts, techniques, symbolisms, and idioms derived from Tibet’s rich and diverse oral art forms and textual traditions. It reveals how Tibetan kāvya poetics, the mgur genre, life-writing, the Gesar epic and other modes of oral and literary compositions are referenced and adapted in novel ways within modern Tibetan poetry and fiction. It also brings to prominence the complex and fertile interplay between orality and the Tibetan literary text. Embracing a multidisciplinary approach drawing on theoretical insights in western literary theory and criticism, political studies, sociology, and anthropology, this research shows that, alongside literary and oral continuities, the Tibetan nation proves to be an inevitable attribute of modern Tibetan literature.
Book Synopsis Encyclopedia of Contemporary Literary Theory by : Irene Rima Makaryk
Download or read book Encyclopedia of Contemporary Literary Theory written by Irene Rima Makaryk and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 1993-01-01 with total page 676 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The last half of the twentieth century has seen the emergence of literary theory as a new discipline. As with any body of scholarship, various schools of thought exist, and sometimes conflict, within it. I.R. Makaryk has compiled a welcome guide to the field. Accessible and jargon-free, the Encyclopedia of Contemporary Literary Theory provides lucid, concise explanations of myriad approaches to literature that have arisen over the past forty years. Some 170 scholars from around the world have contributed their expertise to this volume. Their work is organized into three parts. In Part I, forty evaluative essays examine the historical and cultural context out of which new schools of and approaches to literature arose. The essays also discuss the uses and limitations of the various schools, and the key issues they address. Part II focuses on individual theorists. It provides a more detailed picture of the network of scholars not always easily pigeonholed into the categories of Part I. This second section analyses the individual achievements, as well as the influence, of specific scholars, and places them in a larger critical context. Part III deals with the vocabulary of literary theory. It identifies significant, complex terms, places them in context, and explains their origins and use. Accessibility is a key feature of the work. By avoiding jargon, providing mini-bibliographies, and cross-referencing throughout, Makaryk has provided an indispensable tool for literary theorists and historians and for all scholars and students of contemporary criticism and culture.
Book Synopsis Stylistic Manipulation of the Reader in Contemporary Fiction by : Sandrine Sorlin
Download or read book Stylistic Manipulation of the Reader in Contemporary Fiction written by Sandrine Sorlin and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2019-12-12 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on how readers can be 'manipulated' during their experience of reading fictional texts and how they are incited to perceive, process and interpret certain textual patterns. Offering fine-grained stylistic analysis of diverse genres, including crime fiction, short stories, poetry and novels, the book deciphers various linguistic, pragmatic and multimodal techniques. These are skilfully used by authors to achieve specific effects through a subtle manipulation of deixis, metalepsis, dialogue, metaphors, endings, inferences or rhetorical, narratorial and typographical control. Exploring contemporary texts such as The French Lieutenant's Woman, The Remains of the Day and We Need to Talk About Kevin, chapters delve into how readers are pragmatically positioned or cognitively (mis)directed as the author guides their attention and influences their judgment. They also show how readers' responses can, conversely, bring about a certain form of manipulation as readers challenge the positions the texts invite them to occupy.
