商品簡介
Fraser and Davidson are both well-published poets who are affiliated with the English department of the U. of West Georgia. Their text is appropriate for college-bound students, those early in their college career, and those further along who find themselves still wrestling with writing about literature. The presentation of semiotic analysis is clear, engaging, and specific, with plenty of examples. Chapters address choosing a sign to analyze, questioning and staging the sign, generating ideas about meaning, and building essays and ideas. The last chapter presents 10 analytical exercises pertaining to spectacle, ads, metaphor, gender, slang, consumption, and captivity, among other themes.
