Anatomy of Criticism: Four Essays

Anatomy of Criticism: Four Essays

by NorthropFrye (Author)

Synopsis

This book consists of essays on the possibility of a synoptic view of the scope, theory, principles, and techniques of literary criticism. The primary aim of the book is to give Northrop Frye's reasons for believing in such a synoptic view; its secondary aim is to provide a tentative version of it which will make enough sense to convince readers that a view, of the kind that the Frye outlines, is attainable.

Media Reviews
A brilliant but bristling book. . . . [Mr. Frye] has wit, style, audacity, immense learning, a gift for opening up new and unexpected perspectives in the study of literature.--The Nation
