Challenging the often dismissive view of Frye's work as closed and outdated, Dr. Cotrupi explores the implications of his proposition that the history of criticism may be seen as having two main approaches -- literature as \"product\" and literature as \"process.\" In focusing on Frye's exploration of the process tradition Cotrupi sheds light on the agenda that Frye established for himself, when he noted at the end of \u003cem\u003eAnatomy of Criticism\u003c\/em\u003e that the reconciliatory task of criticism was to \"reforge the broken link between creation and knowledge, art and science, myth and concept.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eDr. Cotrupi recontextualizes Frye's thought and shows us how Frye continues to be, not only relevant, but central to a number of the key concerns in the contemporary critical scene. Re-examining Frye's place in the history of critical thought, Dr. Cotrupi builds upon Frye's original vision of the \"process\" tradition and suggests further directions this exploration may take. Among the current areas of critical engagement which Cotrupi examines are relativism, possible world theory, and postmodernism -- making this work of interest not only to Frye scholars, but also to those interested in the debates currently rocking the world of criticism, literature and culture.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Nella Cotrupi\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 080208141X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780802081414\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Toronto Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/15\/2000\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 158\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.53lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.37d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 06\/01\/2001 pg. 1788","brand":"Nella Cotrupi","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44254738448639,"sku":"9780802081414","price":35.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_dee0411b-9080-492b-a552-549bfe8ea197.jpg?v=1694614093","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/northrop-frye-and-the-poetics-nella-cotrupi-9780802081414","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
