About the Book:

Using Key Passages to Understand Literature, Theory and Criticism introduces a fresh approach to literary theory, focusing on key passages to help students understand literature and cultural texts in new and insightful ways. The book presents short theoretical passages that illuminate a wide range of concepts critical for interpreting and analyzing cultural and literary works. By examining thirty passages from iconic theorists such as Viktor Shklovsky, Roland Barthes, Judith Butler, Michel Foucault, Eve Sedgwick, and others, the book provides a diverse and global overview of literary and cultural theory.

The text encourages readers to engage with literature and other art forms by using these theoretical frameworks to explore complex ideas and cultural events. It emphasizes the practical use of theory, helping students tackle puzzles and questions encountered in stories, films, or artwork. The book concludes by guiding students to identify productive theoretical passages, enabling them to write their own theoretical work.

Key Features:

  • A novel approach to teaching literary theory by using key theoretical passages.

  • Includes concepts from a variety of iconic and contemporary theorists, providing a broad global and chronological perspective.

  • Focuses on helping students read literature and cultural texts more critically and insightfully.

  • Concludes with an approach that transforms students from critics to theorists, teaching them how to develop their own theory chapters.
