很难想象会有另一本文学理论简述比这一本更加明晰,也不会有另一本在这样有限的篇幅内能囊括更多的内容。卡勒的阐述技巧一直备受赞誉。在这本书里卡勒找到了讲述文学理论的独特方式和风格。
——弗兰克·柯莫德(英国批评家)
在本书中乔纳森·卡勒向我们解释了什么是“理论”。他没有描述各个“学派”之间的争斗,而是勾勒了理论所倡导的各个关键的“流变”,直接阐述了文学理论的内涵。这本入门读物《牛津通识读本:文学理论入门》(Literary Theory)会让每个想要了解当代文学的读者受益匪浅。

美国当代知名文学理论家,欧洲理论在美国的阐释者之一,美国解构主义批评代表人物之一
Jonathan Culler taught at Cambridge University and Oxford University before moving to Cornell, where he is Class of 1916 Professor of English and Comparative Literature. His Structuralist Poetics: Structuralism, Linguistics, and the Study of Literature, won MLA's Lowell Prize and established his reputation as analyst and expositor of critical theory. He has published short introductions to Ferdinand de Saussure and to Roland Barthes, but he is known especially for On Deconstruction and Literary Theory: A Very Short Introduction, which has been translated into some 20 languages. He has been President of the American Comparative Literature Association and was elected to the American Academy of Arts and Sciences in 2001 and to the American Philosophical Society in 2006.
What is literary theory? Is there a relationship between literature and culture? In fact, what is literature, and does it matter?
These are some of questions addressed by Jonathan Culler in this Very Short Introduction to literary theory. Often a controversial subject, said to have transformed the study of culture and society in the past two decades, literary theory is accused of undermining respect for tradition and truth and encouraging suspicion about the political and psychological implications of cultural projects rather than admiration for great literature.
Here, Jonathan Culler explains 'theory', not by describing warring 'schools' but by sketching key 'moves' theory has encouraged, and speaking directly about the implications of theory for thinking about literature, human identity, and the power of language. In this new edition Culler takes a look at new material, including the 'death of theory', the links between the theory of narrative and cognitive science, trauma theory, ecocriticism, and includes a new chapter on 'Ethics and aesthetics'. This lucid introduction is useful for anyone who has wondered what all the fuss is about or who wants to think about literature today.
