Charles S. Peirces's Philosophy of Signs
By: Deledalle, Gérard
Published by: Indiana University Press
Charles S. Peirce's Philosophy of Signs examines Peirce's philosophy and semiotic thought from a European perspective, comparing the American's unique view with a wide variety of work by thinkers from the ancients to moderns. Parts I and II deal with the philosophical paradigms that are at the root of Peirce's new theory of signs, pragmatic and social. Part III is devoted to comparing Peirce's theory of semiotics as a form of logic to the work of other philosophers. Part IV compares Peirce's 'scientific metaphysics' with European Metaphysics.

Children's Literature
By: Grenby, M. O.
Published by: Edinburgh University Press
This critical guide provides a concise yet comprehensive history of British and. North American children’s literature from its seventeenth-century origins to the. present day. Each chapter focuses on one of the main genres of children’s literature: fables,. fantasy, adventure stories, moral tales, family stories, the school story, and. poetry. M. O. Grenby shows how these forms have evolved over three hundred. years as well as asking why most children’s books, even today, continue to fall. into one or other of these generic categories. Why, for instance, has fantasy. been so appealing to both Victorian and twenty-first-century children? Are the. religious and moral stories written in the eighteenth century really so different. from the teenage problem novels of today? The book answers questions like. these with a combination of detailed analysis of particular key texts and a broad. survey of hundreds of children’s books, both famous and forgotten.

Coincidence and Counterfactuality
By: Dannenberg, Hilary P.
Published by: Bison Books
In Coincidence and Counterfactuality, a groundbreaking analysis of plot, Hilary P. Dannenberg sets out to answer the perennial question of how to tell a good story. While plot is among the most integral aspects of storytelling, it is perhaps the least studied aspect of narrative. Using plot theory to chart the development of narrative fiction from the Renaissance to the present, Dannenberg demonstrates how the novel has evolved over time and how writers have developed increasingly complex narrative strategies which tap into key cognitive parameters familiar to the reader from real-life experience.
