Descripción Softcover. Condición: New. ReviewThe ability to distill Frye's thought into readable and informative sections is a testament to Adamson's skill as a biographer, but to do it in such a short space without disregarding Frye's personal life is remarkable. -- Quill & QuireProduct DescriptionIn Northrop Frye: A Visionary Life, Joseph Adamson examines the life and career of a remarkable scholar and teacher and his quest for meaning in mythic forms and biblical symbolism. Highlights of this illustrated biography include: Frye's boyhood in Eastern Canada; his dramatic encounter with the work of William Blake; the impact and importance of Anatomy of Criticism; Frye's gradual development of a theory of culture; and his culminating achievement, after 20 years, of a comprehensive study of the poetic structures of the Bible.About the AuthorJoseph Adamson teaches English and comparative literature at McMaster University in Hamilton, Ontario.
