| Edited by Joseph Pearce 'Mary Shelley's Frankenstein is one of the most influential and controversial novels of the nineteenth century; it is also one of the most misunderstood and misinterpreted. It has been vivisected critically by latter-day Victor Frankensteins who have transformed the meanings emergent from the novel into monsters of post-modern misconception. Meanwhile Franken-feminists have turned the novel into a monster of misanthropy. Seldom has a work of fiction suffered so scandalously from the slings and arrows of outrageous criticism. This critical edition, containing tradition-oriented essays by literary scholars, refutes the errors and serves as an antidote to the poison that has contaminated the critical understanding of this classic gothic novel. ' ' The Ignatius Critical Editions represent a tradition-oriented alternative to popular textbook series such as the Norton 'Critical Editions or ' Oxford World Classics , and are designed to concentrate on traditional readings of the Classics of world literature. 'While many modern critical editions have succumbed to the fads of modernism and post-modernism, this series will concentrate on tradition-oriented criticism of these great works. ''Edited by acclaimed literary biographer, Joseph Pearce, the Ignatius Critical Editions will ensure that traditional moral 'readings of the works are 'given prominence, instead of the feminist, or deconstructionist readings that often proliferate in other series of 'critical 'editions'. As such, they 'represent a genuine extension of consumer-choice, enabling educators, students and lovers of good literature to buy editions 'of classic literary works without having to 'buy into' the ideologies of secular fundamentalism. The series is ideal for anyone wishing to understand great works of western civilization, enabling the modern reader to enjoy these classics in the company of some of the finest literature'professors alive today.

It's a sad commentary on our times that this should seem an innovation. Still, at least it has allowed Ignatius Press to offer this important series. Students and scholars will be forever grateful." ' "Joseph Bottum , First Things. ''"To step out of the assumptions of one's own time and place; to understand the literary classic with the mind and heart of the author requires such a breadth of understanding and grasp of history and tradition that few publishers attempt it and fewer still succeed at it. Ignatius Critical Editions , edited by Joseph Pearce, has succeeded admirably." ' "Patrick S.J. Carmack, President, Great Books Academy, Great Books Program, and the Angel |
