Beskrivning
This Dictionary is a guide to the literary terms most relevant to students and readers of English literature today, thorough on the essentials and generous in its intellectual scope. The definitions are lively and precise in equipping students and general readers with a genuinely useful critical vocabulary. It identifies the thinking and controversies surrounding terms, and offers fresh insights and directions for future reading. It does this with the help of extensive cross-referencing, indexes and up-to-date bibliography (with recommended websites).

Recensioner i media

‘The “Anthem Dictionary” defines literary terminology using modern examples with which twenty-first century students will relate. […] Although primarily for the serious use of students, the examples in the entries are frequently lively and entertaining. Seasoned scholars will benefit from not only updated words like “gynocriticism”, “ecocriticism”, and “kitchen sink drama”, but also by the new directions of terms such as disability studies. This volume is a highly useful research tool for everyone involved in literary criticism.’ —Charlotte Lingren, ‘American Reference Books Annual’
