The sixteen essays in this volume form a series of related focuses upon various levels and areas of literary criticism. W.K. Wimsatt's assumption is that practice and theory of both the past and the present are integrally related-that there is a continuity in the materials of criticism-that a person who studies poetry today has a critical concern, not merely a historical interest, in what Aristotle or Plato said about poetry. He regards the great perennial problems of criticism as arising not by the whim of a tolerantly pluralist choice, but from the nature of language and reality.
With profound learning and insight, Wimsatt treats almost the whole range of literary criticism. The first group of essays deals with fallacies he believes are involved in prevalent approaches to the literary object. The next two groups face the responsibilities of the critic who defends literature as a form of knowledge; they treat various problems of structure and style. The last group undertakes to examine the relation of literature to other arts, the relation of evaluative criticism to historical studies, and the relation of literature not only to morals, but more broadly to the whole complex of the Christian religious tradition.
Editorial Reviews
Review
"This is criticism in terms of value and of structure. . . . Consistent and impressive."―New Republic
"One of the major works of criticism in English."―Modern Language Review
Intentional Fallacy is a witty piece. He manipulates a couple of empirical paradoxes to provoke insights. And those insights are carried pretty far.

评分之意图谬误。 啰嗦的Wimsatt翻来覆去就为一个主张,作品本体论,作品与作者意图无关。老师看了想端枪型论述。 末尾拿T. S. Eliot在荒原的注释开刀,暗示诗歌应具有immediacy的力量。如果allusion不明就无法自显的诗意的诗是否为好诗?但,如果以这个为标准,不就陷入了情感谬误吗? 意图谬误整篇只提出问题,指出存在的internal is public & external is private的悖论,至于客观标准为何物作者未表。Wimsatt彻底隔绝了读者和作者的交流,绝对文本中心注定会变得狭隘。60年后的我们又回归文本细读,多细才是细呢?新批评的方法成为一种基本功。
