Theoretical Schools and Circles in the Twentieth-Century Humanities
«
'West in our 21st century continues to digest and transcend the past—a dense tangle of ideas coursing back and forth across the north Atlantic in the 20th century, through wars and peace, in a number of languages as well as English. Authors in this volume survey those centers and movements, finding their distinctive and overlapping and enduring features. The volume is indispensable for anyone seeking to understand the human sciences in either century.'-Myrdene Anderson, Professor of Anthropology and Linguistics, Purdue University, USA
'Schools and Circles is an exciting collection of essays filled with literary and historical insights. Everyone needs to read this book who aspires to understand the way critical movements operated in the century since the end of World War I, as groups with common programs and internecine differences, acting upon and reacting to the external intellectual and political forces that surrounded them.' -David H. Richter, Professor of English, Queens College, CUNY, USA
'This volume really provides two books for the price of one. On the one hand it offers a succinct and very readable introduction to many important schools and circles of the twentieth century; on the other its various contributors with ties to the groups in question also give the inside view. The result is a collection that is pertinent and fun.' -Luc Herman, Professor of Literature in English and Narrative Theory, University of Antwerp, Belgium
