The Mindscapes of Art

In this original study Roy Huss utilizes less orthodox theories and recent advances in developmental psychology to illustrate the wealth of possibilities available to the critic who understands the artist as striving toward the integration of form and feeling. It advances in-depth analysis of a variety of literary, dramatic, and cinematic works, including Sophocles' Oedipus plays, John Osborne's Look Back in Anger, John Knowles's A Separate Peace, and Rilke's The Notebooks of Malte Laurids Brigge.
