<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Now in its second edition, <i>How to Read Texts</i> introduces students to key critical approaches to literary texts and offers a practical introduction for students developing their own critical and close-reading skills. Written in a lively, jargon-free style, it explains critical concepts, approaches and ideas including: <br/><br/>- Debates around critical theory <br/>- The role of history and context <br/>- The links between creativity and criticism <br/>- The relationship between author, reader and text. <br/><br/>The new edition now includes guidance on analysing a range of multi-media texts, including film and online media as well as the purely literary. In addition to new practical examples, readings, exercises and 'checkpoints' that help students to build confidence in their own critical readings of both primary and secondary texts, the book now also offers guidance on writing fully-formed critical essays and tips for independent research. Comprehensively updated and revised throughout, <i>How to Read Texts</i> is an indispensible guide for students making the transition to university study.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p><b>Neil McCaw </b>is Senior Lecturer in English and Creative Writing at the University of Winchester, UK.</p>
