Description: | Select Guide Rating Reissue of this classic work in the development of modern criticism which argues that literary criticism is essentially a branch of psychology, dealing with the states of mind induced by the experiences communicated by art. Ivor Armstrong Richards was one of the founders of modern literary criticism. He enthused a generation of writers and readers and was an influential supporter of the young T.S. Eliot. Principles of Literary Criticism was the text that first established his reputation and pioneered the movement that became known as the ''New Criticism''. Highly controversial when first published, Principles of Literary Criticism remains a work which no one with a serious interest in literature can afford to ignore. |
