- Summary:
- The book is addressed to students of English literature and all professionals interested in textual analysis and interpretation as a practical tool both informed by theory and customized to the needs of understanding fiction of our century. It scrutinizes the main theories and their associated reading strategies, and proposes original applicable models and variants of organising work on literary texts in stages for any literary approach. The current burgeoning of hermeneutics calls attention to these new possibilities by envisioning adjustable visual methods, where ideas are represented circularly following the logic of actions, attitudes or situations in interaction within the fictional world. These shapes imitate the mental representations when comprehension is achieved through repeated readings, as catalysts of an overarching significance. As this book shows, this new procedure of keeping logic in check at all levels of analysis prevents errors of interpretation and at the same time provides the keys for testing its validity. It replaces the traditional linear models by a flexible dynamic of moving through a text without forcing readers' memory to store the details.
