A thoroughly revised and updated edition of Thomas C. Foster classic guide a lively and entertaining introduction to literature and literary basics, including symbols, themes, and contexts that shows you how to make your everyday reading experience more rewarding and enjoyable. While many books can be enjoyed for their basic stories, there are often deeper literary meanings interwoven in these texts. How to Read Literature Like a Professor helps us to discover those hidden truths by looking at literature with the eyes and the literary codes of the ultimate professional reader: the college professor. What does it mean when a literary hero travels along a dusty roadWhen he hands a drink to his companionWhen he drenched in a sudden rain showerRanging from major themes to literary models, narrative devices, and form, Thomas C. Foster provides us with a broad overview of literature a world where a road leads to a quest, a shared meal may signify a communion, and rain, whether cleansing or destructive, is never just a shower and shows us how to make our reading experience more enriching, satisfying, and fun. This revised edition includes new chapters, a new preface, and a new epilogue, and incorporates updated teaching points that Foster has developed over the past decade.
