Description

This revised and enlarged edition from Routledge offers literature students a comprehensive reference text that moves beyond traditional rhetorical dictionaries. Rather than listing time-honoured terms, it focuses on conceptually flexible and powerful critical concepts essential to modern literary analysis. Each entry goes far beyond a simple definition, presenting instead a full essay that explores the history, significance, and practical applications of the term within critical discourse. Originally published in 1987 and now updated, this Dictionary of Modern Critical Terms serves as an ideal foundation resource for students at all academic levels, from undergraduates encountering literary theory for the first time to advanced scholars seeking deeper engagement with contemporary critical vocabulary. The essay-based approach enables readers to understand not just what terms mean, but how they function within broader theoretical frameworks and literary criticism.

Key Features

The Dictionary of Modern Critical Terms prioritises conceptually flexible and powerful terms over traditional rhetorical vocabulary, reflecting contemporary literary scholarship.

Each entry features a full essay rather than brief definitions, exploring the history and full significance of critical terms in literary analysis.

This Routledge Library Editions title serves as an ideal basic reference text suitable for literature students at all levels and academic backgrounds.

The revised and enlarged edition incorporates updated critical discourse, making it relevant for current literary theory and practice.

Essay-based entries demonstrate the practical applications and possibilities of critical terms within actual literary criticism and interpretation.
