Requested by the USF Department of English, the USF Libraries announce the recent acquisition of The Johns Hopkins Guide to Literary Theory and Criticism.
The Johns Hopkins Guide to Literary Theory and Criticism is an indispensable resource for scholars and students of literary theory and discourse. Compiled by specialists from around the world, the Guide presents a comprehensive historical survey of the field’s most important figures, critics and theorists; critical schools and movements; and the innovations of specific countries and historical periods. Its chronological range extends from Plato and Aristotle to the present, with wide geographical and cultural coverage. The online version represents the second edition of this work with revised entries. The Guide supports browsing and searching by topics and names with each entry followed by a bibliography listing primary and secondary sources. As criticism no longer confines itself to the study of literature, this resource may prove useful to students in anthropology, philosophy, psychology, linguistics, and political science.
