New Perspectives on British Authors: From William Shakespeare to Graham Greene

 
Rama Kundu (Author)
Synopsis The fifteen critical studies included in the book cover a wide spectrum of British canonical authors and texts that represent various genres including the ballad songs, drama, poetry, faction, short story, non-fictional prose. The essays bring delightfully fresh perspectives to bear on such rich quarries as Elizabethan drama, neo-classic play, romantic poetry, devotional literature, Victorian novel and short fiction, modernist fiction, twentieth century ‘polemical’ prose, postwar dystopia, and postmodernist novel, while encompassing such authors of timewinning fame as Shakespeare, Dryden, Coleridge, Keats, Hopkins, Hardy, Joyce, Orwell, Greene, and Golding. The critical perspectives that have been used to address these illustrious authors include the range from feminism to phonoaesthetics, intertextuality to Indian poetics, Bakhtinian carnivalesque to generic studies, ‘anxiety of influence’ to postmodern indeterminacy, etc. These scholarly explorations, which combine thorough research with fresh original insight, will provide both profit and pleasure to scholars as well as general readers interested in the sea.
