Unending Conversations: New Writings by and about Kenneth Burke
Okay, first of all I should say that we only covered part 1 in our classes and part two is mostly names gathered like a glossary so I dare say I finished this book.
Second thing to say would be that I DO NOT RECOMMEND this book!!! The text was unbelievably complicated and hard to understand, believe me I read it before class to be ready for the discussions but it only made me more confused. So yeah, if you're interested in critical theories, for heaven's sake, read other books, like Bressler or Dutton or if u wanna go beyond this, read Cambridge companions, they're so friendly while this book here was so hostile I'm amazed I'm still in possession of my mental faculties. 😳
I don't want to discourage any brave soul who'd want to read this but know that you're in for a rough ride :))))
