ABSTRACT

130. Abrams, M. H. A Glossary of Literary Terms. 6th ed. Fort Worth, Tex.: Harcourt Brace Jovanovich, 1993. ix, 301 pp. ISBN 0-0305-4982-5. In developing feminist approaches to the study of music, many scholars have been influenced by theories appearing first in conjunction with feminist literary criticism: for example, deconstruction or semiotics. Abrams deals with these and other critical theories clearly, providing not only definitions but histories and contributions of important leaders in the development of each body of theory.
