Good

[Anna Reta Maria · Rating 3 out of 5]

Ihan ok perusteos kirjallisuuden tutkimussuuntauksista, mutta ilmestymisajankohdastaan (1980-luku) jokseenkin vanhentunut, erityisesti feministisen kirjallisuudentutkimuksen luvun osalta. Luin tämä tenttiä varten, ja myönnän, etten ihan jokaista sivua lukenut, mutta vietin kirjan parissa niin pitkään, että katson lukeneeni siitä suurimman osan.

ITS REALLY USEFUL FOR THE STUDENTS OF ENGLISH LITERATURE

[Atra Bou · Rating 2 out of 5]

Pretty complicated didn't learn much in it as it seems more interested in the historical background of the literary theories than their real usage.
