Book Synopsis
With the erudition that has distinguished his lifelong study of literary criticism, Wellek considers the trends, theories, and quarrels of recent years. He continues to insist that criticism makes judgments and also takes into account “a common humanity that makes all art accessible to us.” He also considers the relationship between literature and linguistics.
