This is the most comprehensive account to date of the history of literary criticism in Britain and Europe between 1660 and 1800. Unlike previous histories, it is not just a chronological survey, but a multi-disciplinary study of how the understanding of literature in the modern era was shaped by developments in intellectual, cultural and social history. It provides an authoritative historical overview in all areas of literary studies. Extensive bibliographies supply detailed guidance for further research. |

Grade 9 Up-An accessible, intercultural examination of verbal and nonverbal communication. The alphabetically arranged entries are well documented and cross-referenced. The text itself, while a little dry, is highly informative and unfamiliar terms are defined in context. Captioned black-and-white photographs are sprinkled throughout; short bibliographies are supplied at the end of many of the entries. The author presents a cross-cultural perspective on theories of language and communication, making his work unique.
