Description: "With the publication of Fearful Symmetry in 1917, Northrop Frye gained wide renown as a literary theorist, a reputation that continued to build throughout his lifetime. This volume in the Collected Works provides a transcription of the seven books of diaries that Frye kept intermittently from 1912 until 1955.

During the period of the final six diaries, 1949-1955, Frye was at work on Anatomy of Criticism, and he refers frequently to many of the essays written during this period that became a part of the book that brought him international acclaim."--BOOK JACKET.
