The exciting new book argues for a renewed emphasis on
humanism--contrary to the trend of post-humanism, or what Neema
Parvini calls "the anti-humanism" of the last several decades of
literary and theoretical scholarship. In this trail-blazing study,
Michael Bryson argues for this renewal of perspective by covering
literature written in different languages, times, and places,
calling for a return to a humanism, which focuses on literary
characters and their psychological and existential struggles-not
struggles of competition, but of connection, the struggles of
fragmented, incomplete individuals for integration, wholeness, and
unity.
