| Synopsis: |
Fundamentally an expression of life through the medium of language, literature accordingly needs to be systematically studied. The present book is a treasure in this direction owing to its concise and easily comprehensible elucidation of ways of studying the varied genre of literature - poetry, prose fiction, drama, short story, essay and criticism. A great contribution of W.H. Hudson - a prominent 19th century literary figure, the present book is planned as a guide and companion to one's own study. It is self-contained, highly interesting and suggestive in itself. It is hoped that it will prove immensely useful to all those readers for whom literature is primarily a means of enjoyment and a help to life. |
