More about the book
<i>The Bedford Glossary</i> includes lengthy (and easy-to-follow) discussions of ideas including such biggies as cultural studies, deconstruction, feminist criticism, gender criticism, irony, Marxist criticism, the new historicism, poststructuralism, psychological criticism and psychoanalytic criticism, and reader-response criticism. More obscure terms--<i>anagnorisis</i>, <i>epithalamium</i>, <i>Menippean satire</i>, <i>kenning</i>--receive shorter but equally careful treatment. This is a clear and comprehensive reference for academics, intellectuals, and anyone else who wants to hold forth intelligently on subjects literary and critical. <i>--Jane Steinberg</i>
