Description

This invaluable guide offers an accessible introduction to two important movements in the history of 20th century literary theory.

As with other books in theTransitions series,Formalist Criticism and Reader-Response Theory includes readings of a range of widely-studied texts, including Joseph Conrad's Heart of Darkness, Charlotte Bront?'s Jane Eyre, and F. Scott Fitzgerald's The Great Gatsby, among others.
