This book was released on 2010-01-01 with total page 505 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This volume brings together Northrop Frye's criticism on twentieth-century literature, a body of work produced over almost sixty years. Including Frye's incisive book on T.S. Eliot, as well as his discussions of writers such as James Joyce, W.B. Yeats, Wallace Stevens, and George Orwell, the volume also contains a recently discovered review of C.G. Jung's book on the synchronicity principle and a previously unpublished introduction to an anthology of twentieth-century literature. Frye's insightful commentaries demonstrate that he was as astute a critic of the literature of his own time as he was of the literature of earlier periods." "Glen Robert Gill's introduction delineates the development of Frye's criticism on twentieth-century literature, puts it in historical and cultural context, and relates it to his overarching theory of literature. This definitive volume in the Collected Works will be a welcome addition to the libraries of Frye specialists and of scholars and students of twentieth-century literature in general."--BOOK JACKET.

Download or read book Northrop Frye written by David Rampton and published by University of Ottawa Press. This book was released on 2010-10-27 with total page 414 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More than fifty years after the publication of Anatomy of Criticism, Northrop Frye remains one of Canada's most influential intellectuals. This reappraisal reasserts the relevance of his work to the study of literature and illuminates its fruitful intersection with a variety of other fields, including film, cultural studies, linguistics, and feminism. Many of the contributors draw upon the early essays, correspondence, and diaries recently published as part of the Collected Works of Northrop Frye series, in order to explore the development of his extraordinary intellectual range and the implications of his imaginative syntheses. They refute postmodernist arguments that Frye's literary criticism is obsolete and propose his wide-ranging and non-linear ways of thinking as a model for twenty-first century readers searching for innovative ways of understanding literature and its relevance to contiguous disciplines. The volume provides an in-depth examination of Frye's work on a range of literary questions, periods, and genres, as well as a consideration of his contributions to literary theory, philosophy, and theology. The portrait that emerges is that of a writer who still has much to offer those interested in literature and the ways it represents and transforms our world. The book's overall argument is that Frye's case for the centrality of the imagination has never been more important where understanding history, reconciling science and culture, or reconceptualizing social change is concerned.

Book Synopsis Anatomy of Criticism by : Northrop Frye
Download or read book Anatomy of Criticism written by Northrop Frye and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2020-05-19 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A landmark work of literary criticism Northrop Frye's Anatomy of Criticism is the magnum opus of one of the most important and influential literary theorists of the twentieth century. Breaking with the practice of close reading of individual texts, Frye seeks to describe a common basis for understanding the full range of literary forms by examining archetypes, genres, poetic language, and the relations among the text, the reader, and society. Using a dazzling array of examples, he argues that understanding "the structure of literature as a total form" also allows us to see the profoundly liberating effect literature can have.
Book Synopsis The Educated Imagination and Other Writings on Critical Theory 1933-1963 by : Northrop Frye
Download or read book The Educated Imagination and Other Writings on Critical Theory 1933-1963 written by Northrop Frye and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2006-12-15 with total page 608 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1933, Northrop Frye was a recent university graduate, beginning to learn his craft as a literary essayist. By 1963, with the publication of The Educated Imagination, he had become an international academic celebrity. In the intervening three decades, Frye wrote widely and prodigiously, but it is in the papers and lectures collected in this installment of the Collected Works of Northrop Frye, that the genesis of a distinguished literary critic can be seen. Here is Frye tracing the first outlines of a literary cosmology that would culminate in The Anatomy of Criticism (1958) and shapeThe Great Code (1982) and Words with Power (1990). At the same time that Frye garnered such international acclaim, he was also a working university teacher, lecturing in the University of Toronto's English Language and Literature program. In her lively introduction, Germaine Warkentin links Frye's evolution as a critic with his love of music, his passionate concern for his students, and his growing professional ambition. The writings included in this volume show how Frye integrated ideas into the work that would consolidate the fame that Fearful Symmetry (1947) had first established.

Book Synopsis Essays on Northrop Frye by : Robert D Denham
Download or read book Essays on Northrop Frye written by Robert D Denham and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2015-03 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The essays collected here represent Robert D. Denham's longstanding interest in the expansive body of literary and cultural criticism of Northrop Frye, among the preeminent humanists of the twentieth century. The essays in part I, which date from 1992 to 2004, focus on Frye's late work with its decidedly religious thrust. These essays take full advantage of Frye's previously unpublished writing, especially his notebooks, now a part of his thirty-volume Collected Works. Part II centers on issues arising from Anatomy of Criticism, arguably the most important work of literary theory of the previous century. Part III is a miscellany. The essays here are devoted to Frye's life, his influence a half century after Anatomy of Criticism, and his views on medicine, Shakespeare, and education.

Expertly introduced by Robert D. Denham, one of the leading editors of Frye’s papers, Northrop Frye’s Uncollected Prose offers valuable insight into Frye’s early life, his research methodology, and thought process, and is further proof of the remarkable depth and range of his work.

Includes over 20 photos, tables and figures, as well as a chapter on Frye’s personal relationship with Elizabeth Fraser.
