Bakhtinian thought
an introductory reader
by Simon Dentith
An understanding of the work of Mikhail Bakhtin is essential for a comprehensive grasp of contemporary debates in literary theory, language and social history. Bakhtinian Thought is the first collection of writings by Bakhtin, Volshinov and Medvedev to be accompanied by a full, lucid and approachable introduction to the work, by the editor Simon Dentith. This collection includes extracts from all the major areas of their work, and makes accessible to the student and teacher pieces of writing previously difficult to locate. Among the texts reproduced are: * Language, Speech and Utterance' *Material and Device as Components of the Poetic Construction' * Heteroglossia in the Novel' *The Grotesque Image of the Body and its Sources' Specifically written with the student reader in mind, Bakhtinian Thought will be a helpful and relevant introduction to one of the key thinkers of the twentieth century.

First Sentence
"One of Mikhail Bakhtin's basic principles is that communicative acts only have meaning, only take on their specific force and weight, in particular situations or contexts; his is an account of the utterance, of the actual communicative interaction in its real situation."
