Literary Theory：Some Traces in the Wake
Here is a collection of fifteen papers bearing on some interesting issues or problems that a modern literary scholar may have often thought of. In this book, you will find critical, and often original, ideas about such things as modernism, postmodernism, wit, imagination, literariness, originality, and genre classification. You can consider, along with the author, such topics as the intentional fallacy, the circle of textualization, the linguistic spaces of poetry, the method of comparative literature, the death of the author, the concepts of work, text, and discourse, the reconciliation of mimetic and expressive theories, and the analogy between biotechnology and creative writing. These traces in the wake of literary theory can be very awakening and rewarding.
