	Chicago, Illinois (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		On August 12, 1833, the Town of Chicago was incorporated as a town with a population of 350.
		Chicago is considered to be one of the largest Democratic strongholds in the United States, as an example, the citizens of Chicago have not elected a Republican mayor since 1927 when William Thompson was voted into office.
		Critics have argued that, due to the limited number of positions available in these conglomerated dispensers, smaller, independent newspapers cannot enjoy a relative freedom in display, but on the flip side, newspapers that do have a position in these dispensers get the same, clean, equal presentation as all the other papers.

	Literary Theory [Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy]
		It is literary theory that formulates the relationship between author and work; literary theory develops the significance of race, class, and gender for literary study, both from the standpoint of the biography of the author and an analysis of their thematic presence within texts.
		The structure of ideas that enables criticism of a literary work may or may not be acknowledged by the critic, and the status of literary theory within the academic discipline of literary studies continues to evolve.
		Literary theory and the formal practice of literary interpretation runs a parallel but less well known course with the history of philosophy and is evident in the historical record at least as far back as Plato.

	Foundations Study Guide: Literary Theory-- Objectivist Center -- Reason, Individualism, Achievement, and Freedom (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		The New Critics justly opposed people's perennial inclination to reduce the meaning of literature to a paraphrasable "message." What was important to the New Critics was the richness of the literary text itself, not the circumstances in which was written or the moral or political causes in which it might be enlisted.
		The Chicago Critics' investigation of major literary forms and effects was pursued by Wayne Booth in two important books: The Rhetoric of Fiction, a learned analysis of the novel form, and A Rhetoric of Irony, a provocative attempt to explain the ways in which authors communicate certain meanings by pretending to communicate others.
		Literary theory is a ferociously contested field because it has crucial implications for every other field that is based on the interpretation of words.

		"Criticism" is divided into five functions (technical, social, practical, theoretical and judicial) and types, such as "impressionistic" or "generic," with further details under critical terminology such as "explication" or "evaluation." Also check the 80-page appendix to locate the most recent developments in poetic criticism (e.g., "The Geneva School" or "Structuralism").
		Pertinent subject headings are "Criticism," "Critics," "Deconstruc- tion," "Literature--History and criticism" and "History and criticism" under the pertinent literature (e.g., "American literature--1783-1820--History and criticism").
		This 1800 to 1850 volume shows critics advancing cautiously from the idea that "literature should be a consensus builder endors[ing] and promot[ing] national social interests and purposes" to political and intellectual fragmentation with the coming of the Civil War.

		The Praises and Criticisms of J.D. Salinger's The Catcher in the Rye
		When critics consider the character of Holden Caulfield, many point to the novel's climactic scene, when Holden watches as Phoebe rides the Central Park carousel in the rain and his illusion of protecting the innocence of children is symbolically shattered.
		Critics regard this episode as Holden's transition into adulthood, for although the future is uncertain, his severed ties with the dead past have enabled him to accept maturity.

		Child (1995), in her study of boarding schools, found that running away was a universal thread that ran across boarding schools and across generations.
		It must be remembered also, that at this time, the Indian boarding schools were a cross-cultural experience for children who were taken from their parents and families, who were abruptly thrust into a foreign world, who were harshly punished for not knowing what was expected of them.
		The boys and girls at Carlisle Indian School were trained to be cannon fodder in American wars, to serve as domestics and farm hands, and to leave off all ideas or beliefs that came to them from their Native communities, including and particularly their belief that they were entitled to land, life, liberty, and dignity.

		American Literary Criticism from the 1930s to the 1980s (Columbia University Press, 1988) demonstrates that some of the most noteworthy advances in American literature during the latter part of the twentieth century come not in drama, fiction, or poetry, but in literary criticism and theory.
		Spanning six decades, thirteen critical schools, and seventy critics, this full-length cultural history of American criticism covers social backgrounds, major critics and texts, philosophical roots, and significant relations among allied and antagonistic movements in the U. and abroad.
		Beginning with the emergence of Marxist criticism in the 1930s, the text explores a whole array of contending schools and movements: New Criticism, the Chicago School, the New York Intellectuals, myth criticism, phenomenology and existential criticism, hermeneutics, reader-response criticism, literary structuralism and semiotics, deconstruction, feminist criticism, fl aesthetics, and cultural studies.

	Dwight Macdonald, "The Book-of-the-Millennium Club"
		The third criterion was involved here, too; these philosophers are important to the Adler-Hutchins school of thought, and the Board doubtless felt that if they are not important in modern thought, they damned well should be.
		My objection is not to this method of selection -- jockeying back and forth between conflicting criteria is the essence of the anthologist's craft -- but to the bland unawareness of it shown by the impresarios, Dr. Hutchins and Dr. Adler, who write as if the Truth were an easy thing to come by.
		In the case of a philosopher like Plato, essentially a literary man and so speaking a universal human language, the difficulty is far less acute, but Aquinas and Aristotle were engineers and technicians of philosophy, essentially system builders whose concepts and terminology are no longer familiar.

	Chicago Reader Movie Review
		Though today Godard and his Cahiers du cinema colleagues are cited mainly as the first critics to regard Howard Hawks and Alfred Hitchcock as serious artists, in some ways their critical defense of Lang's two Indian films--which was harder for most others, including Lang himself, to swallow--is even more important.
		Most critics regarded these films as pathetic and degrading hack work by a once prestigious director, almost as if someone like Ingmar Bergman had directed the current Kull the Conqueror--despite the fact that Lang was filming a script he'd coauthored in Germany in the 20s.
		By contrast the Cahiers critics (among them Luc Moullet, whose book on Lang Camille is reading and quoting from in the bathtub in Contempt) argued that Lang remained absolutely true to his vision and principles in these films.

	Lit Crit & Theory (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		Freud's own relevance to "critical theory" was revived by Jacques Lacan's poststructuralist revision of psychoanalysis, in which the "self" (or ego)--trapped in the Symbolic of language--is forever fraught with a "gap" or incompleteness that is always striving--and failing--to (re-)achieve a wholeness with the original (and "Imaginary") state of unity perceived by the infant.
		Here, the critic brings the cultural/religious assumptions of his or her own time to bear upon a literary work, judging the text according to how well it fits the critic's own ethical values system.
		For instance, the socio-political critic with a Marxist bent might reject as worthless any literary classic--Homer's Iliad, for example--that implicitly accepts the framework of a class-based society--even though Homer was unable to be instructed in the wonders of Marxist dialectic before he wrote his 9th c.

		A literary movement that started in the late 1920s and 1930s and originated in reaction to traditional criticism that new critics saw as largely concerned with matters extraneous to the text, e.g., with the biography or psychology of the author or the work's relationship to literary history.
		Psychoanalytic criticism may focus on the writer's psyche, the study of the creative process, the study of psychological types and principles present within works of literature, or the effects of literature upon its readers (Wellek and Warren, p.
		Both Lacan and his critics argue whether the real order represents the period before the imaginary order when a child is completely fulfilled--without need or lack, or if the real order follows the symbolic order and represents our "perennial lack" (because we cannot return to the state of wholeness that existed before language).

	Writing Chicago; Modernism, Ethnography, and the Novel; Carla Cappeti
		Writing Chicago uncovers the deep connections between the renowned Chicago school of sociology--exemplified by William Thomas, Robert Park, and Robert Redfield--and the great Chicago novelists of the 1930's, Nelson Algren, Richard Wright and James T. Farrell, all of whom integrated sociological theories into their own work.
		In their studies of society, the Chicago sociologists often imitated creative writers and literary critics.
		The product of their overall creativity was an impressive number of studies and narratives about the city, immigration, and deviance that shaped the representation of urban America and the perception of American society between the world wars.
