Beschreibung
The diverse motives and mysteries of why we read are explored in this groundbreaking new work by Rita Felski. Challenging many time-worn homilies and theories put forth in contemporary literary criticism, Uses of Literature offers refreshing new insights into the purpose and value of reading literature.

Proposing that the interaction between reader and literature involves four "modes of textual engagement"--recognition, enchantment, knowledge, and shock--the author bridges the gap between literary theory and common-sense beliefs about literature. Wonderfully original and brimming with valuable insights and provocative ideas, Uses of Literature will change the way you think about why you read.
