Description
An attempt to provide students of literature with an introduction to literary analysis this seeks to involve the student in the process of thinking about literature, showing how to start with one idea and move on to further insights.

Works used to illustrate the text include those by Shakespeare, Pope, Chaucer, James, Jonson, Woolf, Fielding, Milton, Hardy, Swift and Melville. The author has also written "Modern Fantasy: Five Studies", "Literature and Reality, 1600-1800" and "The Impulse of Fantasy Literature".
