Literary criticism
Literary criticism (English: literary criticism) is the study of literature, evaluation and interpretation. Modern literary criticism is often influenced by literary theory, while the latter focuses on philosophical discussion of literary skills and goals. Although the two are closely related, but literary critics may not always be theorists. Is literary criticism a separate one from the literary theory, or is it devoted to concrete literature and its criticism? This is quite controversial. For example, there is no difference between the literary theory and literary criticism described by the Johns Hopkins Guide to Literary Thinking and Criticism, and almost all of them use two terms to describe the same concept. Some critics argue that literary criticism is the practice of literary theory because criticism always deals directly with literary works, and that theory may be more general and abstract. Literary criticism is often presented as an article or monograph. Academic-style literary critics teach in the literature department and publish articles in academic journals; popular critics publish their criticisms in popular journals such as The Times Supplement, The New York Times Book Review, New York Book Review "," London Book Review "," State "and" New Yorker ". ...
