‎KERMODE FRANK; LENTRICCHIA FRANK. FOREWORD‎

‎Forms Of Attention: Botticelli And Hamlet‎

‎University of Chicago Press Chicago and London: 2011. Softcover. Good condition. Sir Frank Kermode the British scholar instructor and author was an inspired critic. Forms of Attention is based on a series of three lectures he gave on canon formation or how we choose what art to value. The essay on Botticelli traces the artist's sudden popularity in the nineteenth century for reasons that have more to do with poetry than painting. In the second essay Kermode reads Hamlet from a very modern angle offering a useful and playful perspective for a contemporary audience. The final essay is a defense of literary criticism as a process and conversation that while often conflating knowledge with opinion keeps us reading great art and working with�and for�literature. "Kermode's volume has the virtue of a lecturer's accessible style designed for a listening audience. It is also self-consciously spare of 'naked criticism.' There is nonetheless an abundance of learned commentary steady substance and unveiled critical excellence. Which is to say the volume is a useful and engaging reflection of its learned author." � London Review of Books ISBN: 0226431703. University of Chicago Press, Chicago and London: 2011 paperback‎

‎KERNAN ALVIN‎

‎The Death Of Literature‎

‎Yale University Press New Haven and London: 1990. Softcover. Very good condition. Kernan shows how the role of literature has been radically altered by the sweeping disorientation we call post-industrialism. Deconstruction which has reduced literary works to "texts" and denuded them of determinate meaning is seen as an extreme extension of the relativism that pervades 20th-century Western society.
