Book Description

Striking out at the conception of criticism as restricted to mere opinion or ritual gesture, Northrop Frye wrote this magisterial work proceeding on the assumption that criticism is a structure of thought and knowledge in its own right. In four brilliant essays on historical, ethical, archetypical, and rhetorical criticism, employing examples of world literature from ancient times to the present, Frye reconceived literary criticism as a total history rather than a linear progression through time.

Literature, Frye wrote, is "the place where our imaginations find the ideal that they try to pass on to belief and action, where they find the vision which is the source of both the dignity and the joy of life." And the critical study of literature provides a basic way "to produce, out of the society we have to live in, a vision of the society we want to live in."

Harold Bloom contributes a fascinating and highly personal preface that examines Frye's mode of criticism and thought (as opposed to Frye's criticism itself) as being indispensable in the modern literary world.

5.0 von 5 Sternen The World on the Head of a Pin, 18. Juni 1999
Von Ein Kunde
As any student of English literature knows, a life without reading Frye is a life with eyes closed to a multitude of possibilities. References to Frye drove me to him; Why else would the world of critical analysis place him in such high esteem by quoting him if not for his ability to make sense of literature? But for all his ability to codify and characterize modes, symbols, myths, and genres, his text seems calls upon the scientific efforts of new criticism. This seems particularly ironic since Frye often demurs the new critical effort. His call for a universal criticism also seems farfetched, primarily because a multiplicity of individual approaches prevents a singular opinion from emerging. However, for the most part, Frye's work both stuns and astounds, forcing the reader not only to understand literature in terms of proto-generic forms, but also to pursue Frye's conjectures into the realms of literature beyond his 1957 publication date. An extensive reading list (from the Greeks to the early twentieth century) assists Frye in his pursuit of the illusive patterns of literature, as well as an encyclopedic concern for definitive examples. Previous definitions of generic categories fall victim to Frye's ruthless pursuit of new possibilities, splitting drama and poetry into more easily digestible shards of subtlety. Frye's use of archetypes proves particularly fruitful, infusing the every-day (or perhaps modern-day) interpretations of lifeless texts with an alternative possibility of generative renewal for the observant, critical thinker. All in all, Frye's text proves well worth the time and effort.

5.0 von 5 Sternen A must read, a source of invaluable insight., 28. Februar 1998
Von Ein Kunde
In seven years of graduate school and six years of working on problems related to those touched upon by Frye, I have not encountered any texts written in this century that surpasses its usefulness. Frye's insights have served me well in circumstance after circumstance, in case after case. They are applicable to and illuminate virtually any kind of text. I have never encountered an effective objection to them, or been let down by conclusions reached on the basis of Frye's insights. Anyone working in critical theory in general or structuralist theory in particular would be foolish not to study this text.

5.0 von 5 Sternen Frye revisited, 18. Dezember 1997
Von Ein Kunde
The previous reviewer's comments on Frye show a great deal of personal bitterness and some fascinating resistance. It'd be interesting to know his experience w/ Frye. As to the review, it's just a summoning of names that mean nothing even to the reviewer himself, in order to demonstrate his own knowledge of the subject of literature and authority in judging Frye. I only ask those who are interested to read the book. Of course, that wouldn't be easy, and the reader may at times feel the urge to argue w/ Frye, charming and persuasive as he is. But, however flawed, this book has no rivals in modern criticism, and it is only by engaging it that further progress is possible. Conclusion: if you're interested in literature, don't ignore this book because of some stupid comments from some bitter reviewer. And by the way Frye was one of the best prose writers of his generation. He did not do creative writing because he knew his limits--he was a master of expository prose. Creative writers do not always make good critics, and the concluding lines of the last review seem exceptionally stupid.
