What is Understanding New Criticism in Literature about?
New Criticism is a literary analysis approach that focuses solely on the text itself, emphasizing close reading and the examination of language, structure, and literary devices. It highlights the importance of tension within a text, which contributes to unity and coherence despite opposing elements. Key figures in this movement include John Crowe Ransom, Cleanth Brooks, and Kenneth Burke, who rejected the Intentional and Affective Fallacies in literary interpretation.
