Abstract

Russian Formalism and New Criticism are two major important theories. Both of the theories have contributed a lot towards well understanding of a text. The former started in Russia whereas the latter started in America. Russian Formalism debunks the content and context of a text and emphasizes form whereas New Criticism focuses on the close reading of a text. The present paper is an attempt to analyze both the theory in a simplified manner.
