A guide to help students with finding sources for assignments pertaining to Literary Criticism.

Defining Literary Criticism

"Criticism is the written analysis and evaluation of works of art, including the artifices of literature, and all criticism operates on the level of convention, a mode of procedure mutually agreeable to members of a society; specifically, to a writer and his or her audience." (Turco, Lewis. The Book of Literary Terms : The Genres of Fiction, Drama, Nonfiction, Literary Criticism, and Scholarship. University of New Mexico Press, 2020, p. 117.)
