Austin Warren – författare

Theory of Literature was originally published in 1949. It is not a textbook introducing the young to the elements of literary appreciation nor a survey of the techniques employed in scholarly research. The authors have sought to unite "e;poetics"e; (or literary theory) and "e;criticism"e; (evaluation of literature) with "e;scholarship"e; ("e;research"e;) and "e;literary history"e; (the "e;dynamics"e; of literature, in contrast to the "e;statics"e; of theory and criticism.
