From the Back Cover
With more than 300 accessible entries on the important concepts, theorists, and trends in post-1900 literary and cultural theory, The Encyclopedia of Literary and Cultural Theory provides a highly informative reference work in this multidisciplinary field. The entries provide explanations of complex terms and important theoretical concepts, as well as summaries of the work and ideas of key figures.
Arranged in three volumes, Literary Theory from 1900 to 1966, Literary Theory from 1966 to the Present, and Cultural Theory, the entries cover all aspects of twentieth-century literary and cultural theory from Russian formalism to structuralism, new historicism to narratology, and performativity to diaspora.
