No mere culmination of the entries in the individual volumes, the index presents a careful re-thinking of each topic to bring out vividly the contours of Frye's thought.
Diary of a European Tour, 1900
Drawing on the diary Margaret Addison kept while travelling in Europe, Jean O'Grady makes available the experiences of the woman who would become the first dean of Annesley Hall at Victoria College. Addison spent most of 1900 travelling through Europe and Britain. Her reactions to various exhibitions and museums in London and Paris are vividly recorded, as are her experiences with British and European society. She describes her encounters with "old world" culture and history and reflects on its meaning for Canada. Her trip ended with visits to the local women's colleges in Oxford and Cambridge, visits that were important to her understanding of how the British experience could be adapted to benefit the women who would live in Annesley Hall, for which Victoria College was then raising funds. This never-before published diary, edited and annotated by Jean O'Grady, offers a remarkable insight into the cultural milieu of the women who shaped higher education in Canada. It will be invaluable for anyone interested in Canadian culture and the history of education, and offers an ideal of "womanliness" that is of interest to feminist theorists.
The Critical Path and Other Writings on Critical Theory, 1963-1975
This volume, which collects Northrop Frye's writings on the theory of literary criticism from the middle period of his career, includes one of Frye's own favourites, The Critical Path (1971). A highly important marker of Frye's career, The Critical Path openly addresses topics that he had previously been reluctant to discuss as fully, including the importance of literature to society, the responsibilities of critics, and the deeper rationales for studying literature. Filled with insightful texts that indicate his transition from literary critic to a theorist of language, myth, and human culture, this edition helps to illuminate many of the ideas and arguments that would appear later in The Great Code and Words with Power. Accompanied by the rigorous scholarship for which the series is renowned, this is another valuable contribution to literary criticism and theory.
Interviews With Northrop Frye
It is often forgotten that Northrop Frye, a scholar known chiefly for his books and articles, was also a gifted speaker who was never reluctant to be interviewed. This collection of 111 interviews and discussions with the critic assembles all of those published or broadcast on radio or television. Also included among the interviews are a number of conversations not generally known, many of them transcribed from tapes gathered from personal collections. Interviews with Northrop Frye aims to provide another view of the famous literary critic, one that supplements that which is often obtained from reading his printed works. Ranging from the earliest interviews in 1948 to discussions that took p...

Index
This final volume in the Collected Works of Northrop Frye realizes a remarkable feat: the completion of the most comprehensive, authoritative collection of writings by the celebrated literary critic, just in time for the centenary of his birth. An essential companion to the rest of the series, the index makes it easy to locate Frye's public and private views on particular subjects, writers, and critics within his published works, diaries, and notebooks. The book is divided into two parts: the first contains all of Frye's substantial remarks on his own life, his writings, and his reputation; the second includes references to people, books, places, institutions, and topics. No mere culmination of the entries in the individual volumes, the index presents a careful re-thinking of each topic to bring out vividly the contours of Frye's thought.
Margaret Addison
As dean of Annesley Hall residence at Victoria University from its founding in 1903 until 1931, Margaret Addison set the tone for university women during the period when college education for women changed from the unusual to the accepted. Jean O'Grady describes her complex personality B revealed in the letters and diaries she left B and discusses her life in the context of her time, which extended from the early development of Ontario's educational system after Confederation, through Edwardian days, to the roaring twenties and beyond.
