Chapter 1 defines such basic terms as "literature" and "discourse," and covers primary and secondary sources. Chapter 2 explores literary genres such as poetry and drama. Chapter 3 covers periodization, while Chapter 4 tackles theoretical approaches to literary criticism: text-oriented (e.g., semiotics); author-oriented (e.g., psychoanalytic), reader-oriented (e.g., reception theory); and context-oriented (e.g, Marxist and gender theory). Chapter 6 is titled How to Write a Research Paper.
