About the Book:
“An Introduction to Literary Criticism and Theory” is primarily intended to familiarize readers with the history of literary criticism and the issues central to it as a discipline, from Plato to the present, and also to give them some practical command of its interpretative methods. The book compresses the two-thousand year old history of Western Critical Thought from the Age of Antiquity to the Contemporary Theorists into six convenient units. The seventh unit of the book presents a number of “Critical Extracts” to give the readers a practical introduction to most of the critical methods and then provide representative examples. A very handy and useful glossary is appended to help the readers to locate useful definitions and critical terms easily.
