This new selection of twenty essays, many published here for the first time, offers a synthesis of Cohen's vital work.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e In these pages Cohen introduces change and continuity as essential modes of discourse in the study of literary behavior, an approach that can produce reliable narratives of literary, artistic, and cultural change. Here Cohen conceptualizes and develops a compelling, innovative theory of genre that promotes a systematic study of historical change, offering rewarding insights for twenty-first-century scholars.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Atlantic Books","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46415897165975,"sku":"9780813954349","price":3852.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780813954349.webp?v=1769061299","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/genre-theory-and-historical-change-theoretical-essays-of-ralph-cohen-9780813954349","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
