Combining history, literary history, and practical and speculative criticism, Irwin pursues the issues underlying the detective story into areas as various as the history of mathematics, classical mythology, the double-mirror structure of self-consciousness, the anthropology of Evans and Frazer, the structure of chess, the mind-body problem, the etymology of the word labyrinth, and dozens of other topics. Irwin mirrors the aesthetic impact of the genre by creating in his study the dynamics of a detective story—the uncovering of mysteries, the accumulation of evidence, the tracing of clues, and the final solution that ties it all together.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Book Land DU","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51672486740269,"sku":null,"price":1500.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0917\/9748\/7917\/files\/51dFXu5CuNL.jpg?v=1764319880","url":"https:\/\/ebookland.in\/products\/the-mystery-to-a-solution-poe-borges-and-the-analytic-detective-story","provider":"Book Land DU","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
