Considering Prose

by Andrew Mayne

Devised by two experienced teachers, this text is aimed at those studying advanced English literature. It deals in depth with an area which, though vital for examination success, is often neglected. Criticism of prose is in many ways a separate area from criticism of verse, and poses its own special difficulties for students up to and including undergraduate level. This book presents such students with a variety of ways of tackling practical prose criticism, and offers them a combination of challenge and enjoyment, whether they are working in groups or individually.
