Description
Historicism is the essential introduction to this crucial concept in literary studies. This edition has been fully revised and includes a new glossary of critical terms, fully updated bibliography, clear suggestions for additional reading, as well as new discussion of Historicism's relation to the globalization debate. Historicism: *explains the theory and practice of historicism *presents the history of the term and its uses *introduces key thinkers in the field, from ancient Greece to the present *considers historicism in relation to contemporary debates, such as post-colonialism, feminism and globalization. This compact, yet comprehensive guide enables students to understand and apply historicist approaches in their own studies.
