The New Criticism: Formalist Literary Theory in America covers a variety of authors and topics related to the New Criticism of the 1920s-1950s in America. Contributors trace the history of the New Criticism as a movement, consider theoretical and practical aspects of various proponents, and assess the record of subsequent engagement with its tenets. This volume should prove valuable for its renewed concentration not only on the New Critics themselves but also on the way they and their work have been contextualized, criticized, and valorized by theorists and educators during and after their period of greatest influence, both in the United States and abroad.
