Literary Analysis and Criticism
Resources

Literary criticism states a positioned analysis of literary works, drawing on theories of textuality, intertextuality, and hypertextuality.

There is only one place to see the complete history of literary theory available on the web: Voice of the Shuttle (VOS). The VOS offers complete online texts ranging from Plato and Aristotle to the latest Lacanian critique or Derridian analysis. On their left hand menu bar just scroll down to literary theory and get ready to be startled by the best in Lit Crit!

Jack Lynch at Rutgers offers a modest literary theory website. It is a good place to begin to find what you need for your literary analysis!
