This volume, the twenty-second in the acclaimed Collected Works of Northrop Frye series, presents Frye's most influential work, Anatomy of Criticism (1957).

This philosophic inquiry into fundamental problems of literature and society is an immensely important addition to the canon of one of America s most original and distinguished critics.

The 'Third Book' Notebooks of Northrop Frye, 1964-1972: The Critical Comedy
ISBN: 9780802035424 / Angielski / Twarda / 2002 / 528 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In the early 1960s, Northrop Frye began keeping notebooks with the aim of creating a critical epic that he referred to as the 'Third Book', a project intended as his third major work following Fearful Symmetry and Anatomy of Criticism. As described by Michael Dolzani, Frye's ambition for the 'Third Book' was for it to become no less than a "symbolic guide to the entire universe." The work he envisioned contemplated the ways in which myth and metaphor are the keys to all verbal structures: how they reach beyond the hypothetical realm of literature to inform, organize, and...

Northrop Frye's Notebooks on Romance
ISBN: 9780802039477 / Angielski / Twarda / 2004 / 560 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Romance was a theme that ran through much of Northrop Frye's corpus, and his notebooks and typed notes on the subject are plentiful. This unpublished material, written between 1944 and 1989, traces a remarkable re-evaluation in his thinking over the course of time. As a young scholar, Frye insisted that romance was an expression of cultural decadence; however, in his later years, he thought of it as "the structural core of all fiction." The unpublished material Michael Dolzani has gathered for Northrop Frye's Notebooks on Romance shows how the pattern and conventions of...
