Literary Criticism
Literary criticism in English literature encompasses the examination, analysis, and interpretation of literary works with a focus on understanding their artistic, cultural, historical, and social significance. It involves the exploration of themes, symbols, narrative techniques, character development, and the overall structure of texts. Literary critics employ various theoretical frameworks and approaches, such as formalism, structuralism, poststructuralism, feminism, postcolonialism, and psychoanalysis, to provide insightful commentary and deeper understanding of literary works. Through their critical insights, scholars and critics contribute to the ongoing dialogue surrounding literature, offering new perspectives, uncovering hidden meanings, and shedding light on the complexities and nuances of the human experience as portrayed in written form.
