The guide brings together a cross-section of key critical work, in order to demonstrate how different schools of thought have treated major interpretative concerns, including authorship, textual form, genre, and literature and history. Extracts from some of the major authorities in the field introduce readers to such diverse approaches as New Criticism, textual criticism, genre criticism, historicism, feminism, psychoanalysis, and queer theory. These extracts treat a wide range of texts, from вЂThe Owl and the NightingaleвЂTM and ChaucerвЂTMs вЂCanterbury TalesвЂTM, to MaloryвЂTMs вЂMorte dвЂTMArthurвЂTM and the Paston letters. Brief overviews from the editor place the pieces in context.
