"Each critical essay is accompanied by a succinct introduction to the history, principles, and practice of the critical perspective and by a bibliography that promotes further exploration of that approach." "In addition, the text and essays are complemented by an introduction providing biographical and historical contexts for Mann and Death in Venice, a survey of critical responses to the work since its initial publication, and a glossary of critical and theoretical terms."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
