Synopsis
William Monroe addresses what William J. Bennett ignores in The Book of Virtues: How do readers use literature as ''equipment for living''? Tackling modernism and postmodernism, Monroe outlines ''virtue criticism,'' an alternative to current theory. Focusing on works by T. S. Eliot, Vladimir Nabokov, and Donald Barthelme, he demonstrates that ......, William Monroe addresses what William J. Bennett ignores in The Book of Virtues: How do readers use literature as ''equipment for living''? Tackling modernism and postmodernism, Monroe outlines ''virtue criticism,'' an alternative to current theory. Focusing on works by T. S. Eliot, Vladimir Nabokov, and Donald Barthelme, he demonstrates that these alienistic texts are not just filled with belligerence but are also endowed with virtues, such as trust and the promise of solidarity with the reader. By considering these vital texts as responses to personal situations and institutional practices, Monroe brings literature back to the common reader and shows how it offers functional responses to the dysfunctional situations of modern life. Readers interested in literary criticism, American culture, and the relationship between ethics and literature will be fascinated by virtue criticism and this fresh look at the virtues and vices of alienation.

    I had sent message asking about the condition of item only because one photo was a little out of focus and description only said used. Never got a reply. I was a little concerned but eventually ordered anyway. It arrived well packaged and in very good to excellent condition. Overall pleased with purchase only wish seller had replied to my inquiry.

    Package received in good condition and securely packed. Seller responded to my offer in timely manner and was very responsive. I would definitely buy from this seller again! Item was delayed due to severe weather and also USPS wasn’t able to ship. Not the sellers fault.
