The Rise of English
In eighteenth-century England, the concept of literature was not confined asit sometimes is today to creative or imaginative writing. It meant thewhole body Of valued writing in society: philosophy, history, essays andletters as wellas poems. What made a text literary was not whether it wasfictional - the eighteenth century was in grave doubt about whether the newupstart form of the novel was literature at all - but whether it conformed tocertain standards of polite letters. The criteria of what counted as litera-ture, in other words, were frankly ideological: writing which embodied thevalues and tastes of a particular social class qualified as literature, whereasa street ballad, a popular romance and perhaps even the drama did not. Atthis historical point, then, the value-ladenness of the concept of literaturewas reasonably self-evident.
In the eighteenth century, however, literature did more than embodycertain social values: it was a vital instrument for their deeper entrenchmentand wider dissemination. Eighteenth-century England had emerged, battered but intact, from a bloody civil war in the previous century which hadset the social classes at each others throats; and in the drive to reconsolidatea shaken social order, the neo-classical notions of Reason, Nature, order andpropriety, epitomized in art, were key concepts. With the need to incorpor-ate the increasingly powerful but spiritually rather raw middle classes intounity with the ruling aristocracy, to diffuse polite social manners, habits ofcorrect taste and common cultural standards, literature gained a newimportance. It included a whole set of ideological institutions: periodicals,coffee houses, social and aesthetic treatises, sermons, classical translations,guidebooks to manners and morals. Literature was not a matter of feltexperience, personal response or imaginative uniqueness:such terms,indissociable for us today from the whole idea of the literary, would nothave counted for much with Henry Fielding.
前言/序言
This book is an attempt to make modern literary theory intelligible andattractive to as wide a readership as possible. Since it first appeared in 1983,I am gratified to report that it has been studied by lawyers as well as literarycritics, anthropologists as well as cultural theorists. In one sense, perhaps,this isnt all that surprising. As the book itself tries to demonstrate, there isin fact no literary theory, in the sense of a body of theory which springsfrom, or is applicable to, literature alone. None of the approaches outlined inthis book, from phenomenology and semiotics to structuralism and psychoanalysis, is simply concerned with literary writing. On the contrary, they allemerged from other areas of the humanities, and have implications wellbeyond literature itself. This, I imagine, has been one reason for the bookspopularity, and one reason which makes a new edition of it worthwhile. ButI have also been struck by the number of non-academic readers it hasattracted. Unlike most such works, it has managed to reach a readershipbeyond academia, and this is especially interesting in the light of literarytheorys so-called elitism. If it is a difficult, even esoteric language, then itseems to be one which interests people who have never seen the inside of auniversity; and if this is so, then some of those inside universities whodismiss it for its esotericism ought to think again. It is encouraging, anyway,that in a postmodern age in which meaning, like everything else, is expectedto be instantly consumable, there are those who have found the labour ofacquiring new ways of speaking of literature to be worthwhile.

剛上大學時就讀過這書之前的譯本,也即《文學原理引論》,現在重新買瞭修訂本,迴憶起早年讀書歲月。此書從文學是什麼這個共同問題齣發,介紹瞭二十世紀西 方主要的幾個文學流派對文學的理論,有理論深度但不艱深。
