About This Novel
Eagleton is a leading figure in international literary theory and is extremely creative and critical. This book is a monograph in which the author systematically introduces and comments on Western literary theories of the 20th century to general readers. The author sorts out the complicated 20th-century Western literary theory revolution that originated from Russian formalism and sorted out three main development lines from formalism, structuralism to post-structuralism, from phenomenology, hermeneutics to reception aesthetics and psychoanalytic theory, and conducted an in-depth analysis of its origin and evolution, problems and limitations. In this new edition, the author has added a new "Preface to the Twenty-fifth Anniversary Edition", giving new reflections on the development of literary theory.
