There are many histories of literary criticism, but this is the first to clarify our understanding of the many seemingly incommensurable approaches employed over the centuries by reference to the three traditions. Making its case by careful analyses of individual critics, the book argues for the relevance of the humanistic tradition in the twenty-first century and beyond.  aLiterary Theory9102276  aLiterature9102277  aalternative ; criticism ; humanistic ; Literary ; plato ; postmodernism:  2ddccBK  c165830d165830  001040708MAENGaSACPGbSACPGd2014-09-04eIntact Bookhouseg5697.00l0o801.95 SEALpPG012328r2022-08-24 00:00:00w2021-04-26yBK
