Here are kinds of literary analysis of text:

1. Formalism: This type of analysis focuses on the formal elements of a text, such as its structure, sound, and imagery. Formalists believe that the meaning of a text is derived from its form, rather than from its content.
2. New Criticism: This type of analysis is similar to formalism, but it also pays attention to the historical and cultural context of a text. New Critics believe that a text can only be fully understood in relation to its time and place.
3. Structuralism: This type of analysis focuses on the underlying structures of a text, such as its binary oppositions and its system of meaning. Structuralists believe that these structures are what give a text its coherence and unity.
4. Deconstruction: This type of analysis focuses on the ways in which texts can be undermined or subverted. Deconstructionists believe that there is no such thing as a stable or unified meaning, and that texts are always open to multiple interpretations.
5. Psychoanalysis: This type of analysis focuses on the psychological motivations of the characters in a text. Psychoanalysts believe that texts can be used to reveal the unconscious desires and fears of the author and the reader.
6. Archetypal Criticism: This type of analysis focuses on the use of archetypes in a text. Archetypes are universal symbols or patterns that can be found in myths and stories from all over the world. Archetypal critics believe that these archetypes can be used to give a text its meaning and power.
7. Historical Criticism: This type of analysis focuses on the historical context of a text. Historical critics believe that a text can only be fully understood in relation to the time and place in which it was written.
8. Biographical Criticism: This type of analysis focuses on the life of the author in order to understand their work. Biographical critics believe that a text can be better understood if we know about the author's experiences and beliefs.
9. Intertextuality: This type of analysis focuses on the ways in which texts are connected to other texts. Intertextualists believe that texts are not isolated entities, but rather they are part of a larger web of meaning.
