This website supports the study of
literary criticism by undergraduate English majors at University
of the Cumberlands. However,
its resources are available for public use. If you choose to add links to materials
included here on your own website, please include a link to this page. We hope you
will find some useful information in the various sections of the site.Critical Theory -- In this section you will find
overviews of a number of critical approaches to literature, along with critical summaries
of important essays on each theory and samples of student writing using each approach.
Critical Practice -- This section
contains some "nuts-and-bolts" information on the craft of documentation,
quotation, and paraphrase.
Writer's Workshop -- If you are
interested in seeing how much you know about literary theory and practice, here's the
place to come. Included are online quizzes on each approach covered under the
Critical Theory node, as well as quizzes on MLA Documentation.
Glossary -- Are you clueless about vraisemblance or reflection
theory? This glossary of literary terms will give you at least two-bits
worth of information.
If you have comments or suggestions, please email
Dr. Fish.
