About the book

"This new edition of Michael Ryan's Literary Theory. A Practical Introduction introduces students to the full range of contemporary approaches to the study of literature and culture, from formalism, structuralism, and historicism to ethnic studies, gender studies, and post-colonial studies. The textbook provides basic instruction for first-name students."--BOOK JACKET.

First sentence: One of the first major schools of literary study in the twentieth century - Formalism - took the relatively simple, though at the time quite revolutionary, position that what a work of literature is about - its content - is related to how it is put together - its form.
