Literary Theory Paperback book

Literary Theory

by Terry Eagleton

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. This book is the 25th anniversary edition of Terry Eagleton's classic introduction to literary theory. It was first published in 1983, and revised in 1996 to include material on developments in feminist and cultural theory. It has served as an inspiration to generations of students and teachers. It continues to function as arguably the definitive undergraduate textbook on literary theory. The 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.
