Homework Help Forum: English- schools of literary criticism

Posted by May on Sunday, October 4, 2009 at 3:52pm.

Hi there, I've really been trying to understand the theory of postmodern criticism and modern criticism, but I still can't seem to understand what it is. I've been researching on the web, & it's still not very clear. I hope someone can help me out here. thanks so much.

  Other teachers may have more suggestions for you. Here are mine -- read widely: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&as_q=modern+literary+criticism&as_epq=&as_oq=&as_eq=&num=10&lr=&as_filetype=&ft=i&as_sitesearch=&as_qdr=all&as_rights=&as_occt=any&cr=&as_nlo=&as_nhi=&safe=images and http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&as_q=postmodern+literary+criticism&as_epq=&as_oq=&as_eq=&num=10&lr=&as_filetype=&ft=i&as_sitesearch=&as_qdr=all&as_rights=&as_occt=any&cr=&as_nlo=&as_nhi=&safe=images Since I'm not a big fan of people who practice literary criticism of any kind, it's hard for me to tell you what each of these is about. I adhere more toward Mortimer Adler's Great Books ideas -- read the texts, draw your own conclusions, and participate in shared inquiry. http://www.greatbooks.org/about.html
