A quarter of a century on from its original publication, Literary
Theory: An Introduction still conjures the subversion, excitement
and exoticism that characterized theory through the 1960s and 70s,
when it posed an unprecedented challenge to the literary
establishment. Eagleton has added a new preface to this anniversary
edition to address more recent developments in literary studies,
including what he describes as "the growth of a kind of
anti-theory", and the idea that literary theory has been
institutionalized. Insightful and enlightening, Literary Theory: An
Introduction remains the essential guide to the field. 25th
Anniversary Edition of Terry Eagleton's classic introduction to
literary theory First published in 1983, and revised in 1996 to
include material on developments in feminist and cultural theory
Has served as an inspiration to generations of students and
teachers Continues to function as arguably the definitive
undergraduate textbook on literary theory Reissue includes a new
foreword by Eagleton himself, reflecting on the impact and enduring
success of the book, and on developments in literary theory since
it was first published
