Literary Criticism from Plato to Postmodernism
The Humanistic Alternative
This book offers a history of literary criticism from Plato to the
present, arguing that this history can usefully be seen as a
dialogue among three traditions
-
the Platonic,
Neoplatonic,
and the humanistic, whose first practitioner was Aristotle.
There are many histories of literary criticism, but this is the
first to clarify our understanding of the many seemingly incom¬
mensurable approaches employed over the centuries by refer¬
ence to the three traditions. Making its case by careful analyses
of individual critics, the book argues for the relevance of the
humanistic tradition in the twenty-first century and beyond.
James Seaton is a professor in the Department of English at
Michigan State University, where he teaches courses on the
history of literary criticism, American literature and culture,
and literature and law. His previous books include Cultural

(1996)
and A Reading of

in the United States by George Santayana
(2009)

Ideas, Society, The Review of Metaphysics, Yale Journal of Law
