About the Book: Insights Into Literary theory: Eastern And Western Perspectives
The poetics of literature has experienced and absorbed variety of revolutions in
its chequered history from Plato to Derrida. But few of these revolutions have
affected students of literature more abidingly than those discussed in this
volume. Bharata and Aristotle, Kshemendra and Horace, and, Freud and Jung are
still contemporary with us. We simply cannot do without them if we ever cared to
be remembered by posterity for our understanding and enjoyment of literature.
