Striking out at the conception of criticism as restricted to mere opinion or ritual gesture, Northrop Frye wrote this magisterial work proceeding on the assumption that criticism is a structure of thought and knowledge in its own right. In four brilliant essays on historical, ethical, archetypical, and rhetorical criticism, employing examples of world literature from ancient times to the present, Frye reconceived literary criticism as a total history rather than a linear progression through time. Literature, Frye wrote, is "the place where our imaginations find the ideal that they try to pass on to belief and action, where they find the vision which is the source of both the dignity and the joy of life." And the critical study of literature provides a basic way "to produce, out of the society we have to live in, a vision of the society we want to live in." Harold Bloom contributes a fascinating and highly personal preface that examines Frye's mode of criticism and thought (as opposed to Frye's criticism itself) as being indispensable in the modern literary world.

啟發hayden white寫meta-history的經典。Frye有一篇研究莎士比亞的作品,非常好,收在1961年的一部莎翁研究集中, 好像叫做a toast to Shakespeare。手頭無書,記不清瞭。
評分不明覺厲。不大喜歡涉及神話/宗教/心理學的部分(近乎是這書的核心內容瞭)。
評分娘的,讀瞭又忘瞭。去找篇sparknote來醒腦。
評分語言還算好懂,而且挺幽默的。
評分讀完之後就哭瞭
