Kenneth Burke (1897-1993) is a major American literary theorist. He worked for The Dial in 1923 as an editor, and as a music critic between 1927-1929. He was influenced by Karl Marx, Sigmund Freud, and Friedrich Nietzsche but did not explicitly follow any particular school of thought. Burke defined humankind as a "symbol using animal."
