Description

In Roman Jakobson, Richard Bradford reasserts the enduring value of Jakobson's theoretical contributions to modern critical thought, demonstrating his relevance to contemporary literary and linguistic scholarship. Bradford re-establishes Jakobson's work as fundamental to understanding the intricate relationship between language and poetry, offering fresh interpretations that centre on his thesis that poetry represents the primary object of language study. By exploring the most radical elements of modernism through Jakobson's lens, this Routledge volume provides students and scholars with critical insights into one of twentieth-century theory's most influential figures. The book traces Jakobson's intellectual career whilst examining how his ideas continue to shape discussions of semiotics, structuralism, and poetic function. Invaluable for literary theorists, linguistics students, and anyone seeking to comprehend the foundations of modern language philosophy.
