Hi everyone, and welcome to the seventeenth episode of A History of Literary Criticism, a podcast about the history of literary criticism. Today’s episode concerns Wen-Hsin Tiao lung, a book by Liu Xie whose title can be translated as The Literary Mind and the Carving of Dragons. Nothing funny going on with the structure today—we’ll start with the social and literary context, then on to a pretty broad summary of what is an actual book-length text, and then a discussion in the context of Abrams’ triangle.

Welcome to the ninth episode of A History of Literary Criticism. Today’s episode concerns two sections from Augustine of Hippo’s works On Christian Doctrine and The Trinity. I’ll discuss a little of the author biography first, then the main part of the episode is divided into four parts: Augustine’s theory of interpretation, the relationship between intention and language outlined in the texts, the importance of knowledge to Augustine’s theorisations, and the role of communication. Then, to Abrams’ triangle! And the implications of Augustine’s work for Ferdinand de Saussure’s theory of language. Next week’s episode will be dedicated to Macrobius’ Commentary on the Dream of Scipio.
