Wimsatt, William K., Jr. & Cleanth Brooks
Literary Criticism: A Short History
Publisher: New York: Alfred A. Knopf, 1964..
4th ptg. 24 X 16½ cm. VG+/VG. Blue cloth, gilt titles on spine, blind titles on front board, top edge dyed brick red, xviii, 755, xxii, [1] pp, footnotes, index. Extremities lightly bumped, a few faint smudges on boards, bookplate on front paste-down. DJ worn at corners & spine ends, spine and part of front panel faded; in Brodart archival cover. From the DJ: "Within the limits of a single volume, the authors manage to be astonishingly comprehensive by reason of their deft and concise handling of their subject. Here, in addition to the famous critics from Plato to T. S. Eliot, are many others whose doctrines merit more attention than they have yet received. Particularly unusual are the excursions into the theories of aesthetics which emerged on the Continent: Italy in the Renaissance, Germany in the early nineteenth century, France after 1850."
