Product Description

Review
"This dictionary's virtues and its plain-spokenness make it...as apt to the bedside table as to the desk."--Times Literary Supplement


Product Description
Containing over 1000 of the most troublesome literary terms encountered by students and general readers, this book gives clear and often witty explanations to terms such as hypertext, multi-accentuality, and postmodernism. Among the book's features are: extensive coverage of traditional drama, rhetoric, literary history, and textual criticism; fully updated terms that have become prominent in the last few years; and advice on further reading for particular terms and for general terms.

4.0 out of 5 stars Useful and straight forward, 11 Jan 2004
This dictionary is a joy, particularly for the new English Literature student. It's definitions are succinct and informative, including pointers for further reading. It's not definitive but is a great book to have on hand for quick and easy reference.
