Progression Literature: The Literature of Denouement: Introducing a New Literary GenreBy: Judyth Vary Baker | 09/09/2009 | FictionIn life, fiction, and non-fiction, what we perceive as 'true' depends on what we end up believing, based on what we learn. If the information is false,'the truth' may in fact be false. Example: Lee Harvey Oswald is presented every Nov. in TV specials as JFK's killer, with evidence to the contrary ignored/suppressed. In literature, emerging information (true or false),also changes the 'truth.' In progression literature, the reader may be surprised by how 'truth' can evolve almost endlessly.

Of course, the evolution is evident in their poetry, but the survey given here of the personal letters, travel descriptions and critical statements of our three authors at least outlines the course of this historical pattern. Each author's style dictates his role in the dialectical argument as a theorist arguing for more comprehensive, though not necessarily better, models of the mind, thought and language.
