Review title: An excellent all-levels access account of structuralism
Product review: I studies for two semesters with this professor at Middlesex Polytechnic in London, and this volume captures the essence of a portion of a dynamic lecture series on the historical backgrounds of structuralism. Jackson's training is not limited to literature, and his engineering background is evident in his structural/functional view of literary theory. This is a great springboard for investigation into the work of de Saussure, Barthes, Levi-Strauss, and Derrida, with reading lists presented at the end of each chapter to guide further inquiry. An emphasis is placed on primary theoretical texts, rather than the interpretations of later theorists.The series is followed by a work on Marx, entitled The Dematerialization of Karl Marx, and a (yet to be published) volume on Freud, tenatively entitled The Descientification of Sigmund Freud.
