A Handbook of Critical Approaches to Literature by Wilfred L Guerin

A Handbook of Critical Approaches to Literature by Wilfred L Guerin

"A Handbook of Critical Approaches to Literature, Fifth Edition" offers readers and students a variety of ways of looking at a piece of literature. It is appropriate for courses in Literary Criticism or Theory, as well as in freshman/sophomore level. Offering an introduction to Literature courses, this text serves as a comprehensive guide to the major critical approaches to literature. Using classic works such as "To His Coy Mistress", "Hamlet", "Huckleberry Finn", "Young Goodman Brown," "Everyday Use," and (new to this edition) "Frankenstein" as tools to introduce students to various critical theories, this book demonstrates how different approaches to an array of readings enrich the total response to and understanding of the individual work.
