Interrogating Texts S.
1 total work
The books in this series aim to combine the discussion and explication of some of the key discourses of contemporary literary theory (eg postmodernism, psychoanalysis, feminism) with reading of popular/classic literary texts. This text analyzes the way in which dialogism - based on the writings of Mikhail Bakhtin - has been taken up, refined and redefined by a wide range of literary and cultural critics, and then tests the usefulness of dialogism and its attendant concepts in readings of six literary texts.
