Hidden Designs (Routledge Revivals)

Meer over het boek

Focusing on the critical debate of the English literary Renaissance, this 1986 study argues for a return to criticism grounded in its own merits rather than theoretical frameworks. It critiques the hyper-professionalization of literary studies, advocating instead for a communal approach that emphasizes the broader functions of criticism. Drawing on new historicism and post-structuralism, the work presents a thought-provoking perspective on the role of literary analysis in society.
