About
Permanence and Change: An Anatomy of Change, written by American literary theorist Kenneth Burke, was first published in 1935, at the height of the Great Depression. Burke followed this with Attitudes Toward History followed just two years later. His texts proved to be revolutionary in the theory of communication, and, as classics, retain their surcharge of energy.
Permanence and Change: An Anatomy of Change treats human communication in terms of ideal cooperation, and in this book, Burke establishes, in groundbreaking fashion, that form permeates society, just as it does poetry and the arts.
This present volume is the Second Edition, first published in 1954, and includes an Introduction by Hugh Dalziel Duncan.
