`Censorship, aestheticism, African literature, and current
developments in criticism. All this and more is in Routledge's
stimulating Encyclopedia ... It is primarily an accessible review
of critics' approaches to the study of literature, past and
present. Essays by 90 hands discuss the many different ways of
evaluating literature. This guarantees a certain amount of ferment
in the reader. No sooner is one persuaded that one approach is
valuable when the next essay presents an attractive alternative.' -
Library Association Record
`The stimulating essays, which exhibit and criticize literature,
have many powerful features.' - Review of English Studies
