  2. Anthem Dictionary of Literary Terms and Theory
    Second Edition
    Piyas Chakrabarti, with an Introduction by Robert Douglas-Fairhurst

    This exemplary Dictionary provides a critical tool-kit for all students inquiring into the complexities of literary theory, terms and their usage. It introduces readers to various schools of theory and criticism, the nuances of rhetoric and prosody, clarifying the (often abstruse) language of literary discourse. A rich range of examples from literary texts – and occasionally from related genres such as music and film – illustrate all definitions and arguments. The publication dates of the works mentioned here present an excellent overview of the historical evolution of genres and schools of thought. The entries attempt to place literary trends against their broader socio-cultural and philosophical backgrounds.
