Limits to Interpretation

The Meanings of Anna Karenina

von Vladimir E. Alexandrov

368 Seiten, Taschenbuch

Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Vladimir E. Alexandrov advocates a broad revision of the academic study of literature, proposing an adaptive, text-specific approach designed to minimize the circularity of interpretation inherent in the act of reading. He illustrates this method with the example of Tolstoy's classic novel via a detailed ""map"" of the different possible readings that the novel can support. The novel Anna Karenina emerges as deeply conflicted, polyvalent, and quite unlike what one finds in other critical studies.
