| Description | “Beyond the Blurb” is a collection of essays by the American literary critic Daniel Green devoted to the nature of literary criticism and the principles on which it may be based. Green examines the work of such influential critics as James Wood, Harold Bloom and Susan Sontag, analysing their strengths and weaknesses and challenging approaches to reading and evaluating literature that have become widespread today. He argues against criticism in which a literary work becomes merely an occasion for applying a predetermined theory and calls for renewed attention to the work itself — its form, style, structure and effect on the reader. The book is intended not only for specialists: it is both a reflection on the critic’s profession and a defence of careful, reasoned discussion of literature. |
