Modern North American Criticism and Theory presents the reader with
a comprehensive and critical introduction to the development and
institutionalization of literary and cultural studies throughout
the twentieth century and at the beginning of the twenty-first.
Focusing on the growth and expansion of critical trends and
methodologies, with particular essays addressing key figures in
their historical and cultural contexts, the book offers a narrative
of change, transformation, and the continuous quest for and
affirmation of multiple cultural voices and identities. From
semiotics and the New Criticism to the identity politics of
whiteness studies and the cultural study of masculinity, this book
provides an overview of literary and cultural study in North
America as a history of questioning, debate, and exploration. A
further reading list accompanies each chapter. Key Features *
Breadth of coverage from Northrop Frye to Fredric Jameson and from
The New Criticism and the Chicago School to New Historicism,
African-American Studies and Canadian Literary Studies. * Focus on
the history of modern criticism. * Accessibly written. *
Theoretical debates are set in full historical, cultural and
philosophical contexts.
