QUOTE: Thoughts on Literary Analysis

“a method by which a thing is separated into parts, and those parts are given rigorous, logical, detailed scrutiny, resulting in a consistent and relatively complete account of the elements of the thing and the principles of their organization.”
 -C. Hugh Holman and William Harmon [1]
