FROM TODAY'S FEATURED ARTICLE

Front cover of the first edition

The Structure of Literature is a 1954 book of literary criticism by Paul
Goodman, the published version of his doctoral dissertation. It proposes a mode
of formal literary analysis in which Goodman defines a formal structure within
an isolated literary work, finds how parts of the work interact with each other
to form a whole, and uses those definitions to study other works. He analyzes
multiple literary works as examples with close reading and genre discussion.
Goodman finished his dissertation in 1940, but took 14 years to publish it. In
mixed reviews, critics described the book as falling short of its aims; engaging
psychological insight and incisive asides were mired in glaring style issues and
jargon that made passages impenetrable or obscured his argument. Though Goodman
contributed to the development of the Chicago School of Aristotelian formal
literary criticism, he neither received wide academic recognition for his
dissertation nor was his method accepted by his field. (Full article...)

TODAY'S FEATURED PICTURE

The Symphony No. 9 in D minor, Op. 125, is a choral symphony, the final complete
symphony by Ludwig van Beethoven, composed between 1822 and 1824. It was first
performed in Vienna on 7 May 1824. The symphony is regarded by many critics and
musicologists as a masterpiece of Western classical music. It is one of the
best-known works in common practice music and one of the most frequently
performed symphonies worldwide. Symphony No. 9 was the first example of a major
composer scoring vocal parts in a symphony. In the 20th century, an instrumental
arrangement of the chorus was adopted by the Council of Europe, and later the
European Union, as the Anthem of Europe. This photograph displays page 12 of
Beethoven's original manuscript, which is currently held in the collection of
the Berlin State Library.

Manuscript credit: Ludwig van Beethoven
