More about the book
Taking words from a variety of sources, and from a range of different languages and cultures, it is little wonder that contemporary literary theory poses peculiar difficulties of usage and understanding. This new edition of Hawthorn's acclaimed glossary, contains a large body of new terms, revises many of the previous entries (sometimes very substantially), and includes both an expanded bibliography and detailed recommendations for further reading. The cross-referencing is extensive, allowing a good appreciation of the context of particular terms; and bibliographic guidance enables the reader readily to trace their origin and development.
