  Great semi-first impression for early Burke. Book transcends time and doesn't read at all like an ancient text from early 20th Century American publications like, say, Dewey. Solid introduction to the world of Burke, but it helps to be knowledgeable of his life going in.

  The first collection of essays by uncategorizable literary critical genius, Kenneth Burke, is the product of a young man's bohemian life in 1920's Greenwich Village alongside established thinkers such as T S Eliot, Marianne Moore and Ezra Pound. "Psychology and Form" is particularly interesting as it traces the development of a kind of generic influence analysis of which appears to have tragically dried up.
