| Publisher Description: With its first edition, The Longman Anthology of British Literature created a new paradigm for anthologies. Responding to major shifts in literary studies over the past thirty years, it was the first collection to pay sustained attention to the contexts within which literature is produced, even as it broadened the scope of that literature to embrace the full cultural diversity of the British Isles. KEY TOPICS The Fifth Edition builds on the pioneering features of the previous four editions, expanding the strong core of frequently taught works while continuing to lead the way in responding to the shifting interests of the discipline. " Perspectives" sections are groupings that shed light on the period as a whole. An unrivaled rich illustration programof black-and-white and color illustrations include portraits of major authors as well as images to illustrate artistic and cultural developments. MARKET: For anyone with an interest in Romantic Literature . |
