Fry offers in this welcome book a guided tour of the main trends in twentieth-century literary theory. At the core of the book's discussion is a series of underlying questions: What is literature, how is it produced, how can it be understood, and what is its purpose? \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFry engages with the major themes and strands in twentieth-century literary theory, among them hermeneutics, modes of formalism, semiotics and Structuralism, deconstruction, psychoanalytic approaches, Marxist and historicist approaches, theories of social identity, Neo-pragmatism and theory. By incorporating philosophical and social perspectives to connect these many trends, the author offers readers a coherent overall context for a deeper and richer reading of literature.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"display:none\"\u003eISBN-10: 0300180837\u003cbr\u003eISBN-13: 9780300180831\u003cbr\u003eAuthor: Fry, Paul H.\u003cbr\u003ePublisher: Yale University Press\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Yale University Press","offers":[{"title":"Paperback (Apr 2012)","offer_id":46356692435141,"sku":"9780300180831","price":19.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0708\/6414\/2533\/files\/9780300180831.jpg?v=1781310041","url":"https:\/\/www.inveni.store\/products\/theory-of-literature","provider":"Inveni","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
