Dictionary of Modern Critical Terms
By Unknown Author.
Description
A Dictionary of Modern Critical Terms , widely regarded as a standard reference book, is a valuable resource for literature students at all levels. The book differs from other 'dictionaries of criticism' in concentrating less on time-honoured rhetorical terms and more on conceptually flexible, powerful and contemporary critical terms. Each entry consists not simply of a 'dictionary definition' but an essay exploring the history and full significance of the term, and its possibilities in contemporary critical discourse. - from Amzon
