These reviews of culture and literature illuminate Frye's great system of thought as it unfolded during one of his most fruitful periods. In part 1, Frye engages some of the central figures of twentieth-century thought, including Spengler, Jung, Cassirer, Frazer, Toynbee, Langer, and Eliade. Part 2 presents eleven essays on novelists and poets, from Cervantes to Char.
