Convocation Address: University of Bologna -- Appendix: The Social Context of Literary Criticism -- Notes -- IndexDrawn from previously unpublished essays, talks, reviews and papers, this volume of Northrop Frye's collected works spans some fifty years of his long writing career. The earliest item is a paper on The Canterbury Tales dating from Frye's student days at Oxford. The latest was written in 1989, on the occasion of his receiving his thirty-sixth honorary degree from the University of Bologna.The center-piece of the collection is Frye's lengthy and ambitious essay, "Rencontre." Intended as an introduction to a never-published anthology of English literature, it is unique in Frye's oeuvre, being the only example of a sustained, continuous encounter with an entire literary tradition. "Rencontre" is a masterwork in its own right. Other important essays include: "Shakespeare and the Comedy of Humours," "The Literary Meaning of 'Archetype,'" and "Blake's Jerusalem." Frye was a profound and original thinker whose stature has not yet been fully realized. The writings collected here not only exemplify his extraordinary mind and elegant prose style - they show a far-sightedness and range that has not been seen before.Literature and societyEnglish literatureHistory and criticismCriticismElectronic books.Literature and society.English literatureHistory and criticism.Criticism.809.93355Frye Northrop, 131719Denham Robert D.MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910456122303321Northrop Frye on literature and society, 1936-19892487012UNINA
