"If I had to be limited to one anthology of twentieth century literary critical theory, I would probably want this to be the one. The major approaches are represented: structuralism, formalism, phenomenology, deconstruction, psychoanalysis, feminism and Marxism. The essays include Jakobson on metaphor and metonymy; Todorov on detective fiction; Barthes and Foucault on the author, Jameson on postmodernism, Eco on Casablanca."
