Peter Barry picks up on these shifts and engages with current debates to emphasise the continuing significance of theory today.In a lucid and engaging style, this guide introduces readers to:The dominant debates involving the life, death and future of theoryThe way that existing theories have evolved, such as the move from ''Historicism'' to a ''New Formalism''The relevance of new theories such as ''Presentism'', ''Deep'' narratology and the move toward performativity and performance in gender studiesThe ''spiritual'' in literature, along with the rise of theology and the turn to god as a focus for interpretationThe move from postcolonial to transnational or global literatures.Offering a lively and up-to-date introduction to the ever-changing and contentious field of literary theory, this guide shows the lasting relevance and even necessity of continuing theory.
