Theory and Practice of Literary CriticismModule Convenor: Dr Alastair RenfrewIntroductory Reading ListThis introductory list covers texts that shoulda. be acquired in advance of the course;b. be consulted during the long vacation in preparation for the course.*Please note that a full reading list covering each of the topics studied on the module, as well as additional generalresources, will be available via DUO from the start of term.*a. The set text for the course is:The Norton Anthology of Theory and Criticism (2nd edition), ed. Vincent B. Leitch et al (Norton, 2010).A wide-ranging collection of excerpts and essays from the long history of theory and criticism,from Plato to the present day, with particular emphasis on the past century. With essays on all ofthe theoretical strands covered on the course, this will be your primary resource for preparatoryreading in advance of lectures and will also provide much of the set reading for tutorials(although individual lecturers and tutors may also prescribe supplementary material from othersources). The anthology also features brief introductions to individual critics and theorists, aswell as a comprehensive bibliography and index.b. It is advisable to read in advance one or more of the following introductions to theory andcriticism:Jonathan Culler, A Very Short Introduction to Literary Theory (Oxford University Press, 1997).As the title suggests, this is a very short, lucid and accessible introduction to some of the keyissues involved in reading and using theory.Patricia Waugh (ed.), Literary Theory and Criticism: an Oxford Guide (Oxford University Press, 2006).A collection of some 40 essays, with a long introduction, covering the history of modern theoryand criticism, including the theorists and movements covered on the course.Andrew Bennett and Nicholas Royle (eds), An Introduction to Literature, Criticism and Theory (4thedition) (Routledge, 2009).As much an introduction to literary studies in general as it is to theory and criticism, this book isorganised thematically, rather than by theorists and movements, and is particularly helpful inencouraging theoretical reflection that is integrated with your existing habits as readers. Alsocontains a brief but helpful glossary of terms; links to additional chapters are available atwww.routledge.com/books/details/9781405859141/2

Medieval LiteratureModule Convenors: Professor Elizabeth Archibald (Michaelmas 2015)and Professor Corinne Saunders (2016)This list introduces the main authors and topics, following the order of the lecture list for nextyear. Editions of literary works are given, and a few critical works for each topic. Goodpaperback editions are asterisked. The final sections list some background texts and general orcontextual studies. Further reading lists on individual writers and topics will be supplied atlectures. Most important over the vacation is to familiarise yourself with as many of the primarytexts as possible. The language of the texts can, of course, be more challenging than that ofcontemporary texts, so the more you can read over the summer the better! If you have anyquestions, please feel free to contact the course convenor, Professor Elizabeth Archibald, duringthe vacation: e.f.archibald@durham.ac.uk.NB: The Library is asked to place all asterisked items on three-day loan.Early Middle English*The Owl and the Nightingale: Text and Translation, ed.
