Where does the current explosion in literary theory come from? What earlier theoretical movements does it grow out of, bounce off, react against? This introductory history homes in on the essential principles governing the major movements in literary theory, unfolding a comprehensive 'story' in all its jumps and swings and switches.

At the same time, he shows how literary theory has taken on very different roles in different periods. He relates these different roles to particular
