This introductory chapter examines the linguistic turn taken by literary theory. The linguistic turn has been greeted in literary studies with alternating enthusiasm and dismay, and these reactions have been directly related to recurring struggles in the discipline to establish appropriate relationships among theory, history, and criticism, and between all three of them and ideology.

Keywords:   literary theory, linguistics, language, history, criticism, ideology
