• 9781405835725: A New Introduction to Old English von Dr Richard North, Dr Joe Allard  € 30,98 [D]*  Lieferbar
  

  A New Introduction to Old English Literature will change the way readers think about this fascinating - if challenging - period of literary history. Written with vigour and a keen understanding of the readers' needs, this book rips up the rule book and brings Old English into the 21st Century

  North and Allard also change the perception of the newcomer. Most Old English guides begin with the Christian literature, before moving on to the heroic, blood and thunder material like Beowulf. This book starts with Beowulf and the pagan heroic, before moving to the Christian via a pivotal chapter on The Dream of the Rood - one of the great works of Old English literature - which combines pagan heroism and Christian morality in the embodied figure of the Cross.

• 9781405859141: An Introduction to Literature Criticism and Theory von Dr Andrew Bennett, Prof Nicholas Royle  € 24,56 [D]*  Lieferbar
  

  Fresh, original and compelling, An Introduction to Literature, Criticism and Theory is the essential guide to literary studies.

  Starting at ‘the beginning’ and concluding with ‘the end’, the book covers topics that range from the familiar (character, narrative, the author) to the more unusual (secrets, pleasure, ghosts). Eschewing abstract isms, Bennett and Royle successfully illuminate complex ideas by engaging directly with literary works – so that a reading of Jane Eyre opens up ways of thinking about racial difference, whilst Chaucer, Raymond Chandler and Monty Python are all invoked in a discussion of literary laughter.

  Each chapter ends with a narrative guide to further reading and the book also includes a glossary and bibliography. The fourth edition has been revised to incorporate two timely new chapters on animals and the environment.

  A breath of fresh air in a field that can often seem dry and dauntingly theoretical, this book will open the reader’s eyes to the exhilarating possibilities of both reading and studying literature.

  Andrew Bennett is Professor of English at the University of Bristol and Nicholas Royle is Professor of English at the University of Sussex.

The strength of this text is that it gives the student a realistic understanding of how the process of filmmaking works, along with a greater sense of the informed and skillful choices that its artists and technicians make in creating their art.

• 9781405832809: Blake: The Complete Poems von W.H. Stevenson  € 30,98 [D]*  Lieferbar
  

  Blake is undoubtedly one of the greatest lyricists in English poetry, yet his work is often complex and obscure. Many readers will be unfamiliar with the various political, social, religious, artistic, academic and literary issues that dominated Blake’s time. Alongside his involvement in radical politics Blake was fascinated by popular unscientific conjecture about the history of the British people after the Flood. Influenced by contemporary issues and long-forgotten fads, was often infused with an anger that was the product of personal arguments. Consequently, the style of Blake's narrative verse is not always easy to appreciate.
  
  This, the second edition of the acclaimed Blake: The Complete Poems, remains unrivalled for the basic and detailed information it provides for interpreting the poems. The text is clear with a minimum of the 'turned' lines that make Blake's narratives so awkward to read.

   

  This new edition will be illustrated in full colour with some of Blake’s visionary paintings and designs, in order to highlight to readers the full breadth of Blake’s genius. The inclusion of these plates sets this volume apart from all other editions.

It blends an appreciation of children's books across all genres with an emphasis on meaningful instructional strategies for literacy programs.

• 9780321049155: Children's Literature, An Invitation to the World (with Children's Literature Database CD-ROM (PC only), Version 2.0) von Diana Mitchell  € 80,20 [D]*  Titel nicht mehr im Programm
  

  Children's Literature: An Invitation to the World widens the lens on children's literature to reflect a world view.

  This text challenges the reader to look critically at each piece of literature and to consider the author's cultural understanding, values, and perspective on the world. The reader is also asked to examine his or her own world views-from cultural heritage to life experiences-and to reflect on how these views may manifest as biases when interpreting and teaching children's literature.

  Why do you cry when you read a book? With an approach that is both reflective and interactive, this text boasts a lively, passionate writing style designed to draw in the reader. Rather than focusing on an academic interpretation of literature, Mitchell encourages discussion about the impact books have on the reader in the affective domain-from sparking our imagination to touching our emotions. Children's Literature encourages discussion of why books affect us the way they do.

• 9780131937925: Concise Anthology of American Literature von George McMichael, James S. Leonard  € 56,66 [D]*  Titel nicht mehr im Programm
  

  For courses in American Literature that use a concise American Literature Anthology.

   

  Message:  For nearly three decades, students and instructors have complemented their introductory American Literature studies with Anthology of American Literature, in both its two-volume and concise editions.  Carefully selected works introduce readers to America's literary heritage, from the colonial times of William Bradford and Anne Bradstreet to the contemporary era of Saul Bellow and Toni Morrison. It provides a wealth of additional contextual information surrounding the readings as well as the authors themselves. An expanded chronological chart and interactive time line help readers associate literary works with historical, political, technological, and cultural developments. Other coverage includes a continued emphasis on cultural plurality, including the contributions to the American literary canon made by women and minority authors, and a reflection of the changing nature of the canon of American Literature.

   

   Story:  This anthology, first published in 1974, has been successful based on five major principles:  choosing selections primarily for their literary value, including as many complete works as possible, providing the very best available scholarly texts and annotating them fully, keeping headnotes and period introductions informative but short, and avoiding literary fads.  While making these judgments, the editors recognized that anthologies must always adapt, meet the changing needs and interests of teachers and students. 

   

  The decisions were not based solely on the editors' tastes, and they never have been.  In preparing the first edition George McMichael gathered class syllabuses from over one hundred American literature teachers around the country, to see what was being taught.  From that information he drew up a proposed table of contents and submitted it to the advisory editors and to the editor, who also discussed it with field representatives.  That first TOC was dominated, as the results from the syllabuses suggested it should be, by authors whose works constitute the canon of American literature, Franklin, Jefferson, Emerson, Poe, Hawthorne, Melville, Thoreau, Whitman, Dickinson, and so on. 

   

  The same process has been followed in subsequent editions, with additional information gained from surveys sent largely, but not solely, to those who use the anthology.  So, the TOCs for the various editions have been a collective effort.  They are not the product of the editors' prejudices or those of any other single person.

   

  That collective effort has produced an anthology that is not radical but centrist, as it was intended to be.

• 9780321277756: Dorothy Wordsworth, A Longman Cultural Edition von Dorothy Wordsworth, Susan Levin  € 6,37 [D]*  Titel nicht mehr im Programm
  

  From Longman's Cultural Editions series, Dorothy Wordsworth, edited by internationally acclaimed expert Susan Levin, is the first to present the writings of Dorothy Wordsworth's writing in a single volume, representing all the genres that attracted her pen: poetry, journals, travelogues, letters, tales and narratives. 

   

  Often treated merely as an appendage to her famous brother William, Dorothy Wordsworth emerges across Susan Levin's pages as a vital imagination, keenly tuned to her world, and pulsing with her own brilliance: journalist, poet, traveler, social activist, and crucial presence in the Wordsworth household. The world of Grasmere and its writing community are conveyed by selections from De Quincey on incest, Hannah Glasse on making mutton, a spy from the Home Office on "a sett of violent democrats," and a country farmer on "the pernicious and destructive consequences of enclosing common fields" -all in all more than 400 pages of seething Romanticism.

   

  Handsomely produced and affordably priced, the Longman Cultural Editions series presents classic works in provocative and illuminating contexts-cultural, critical, and literary. Each Cultural Edition consists of the complete texts of important literary works, reliably edited, headed by an inviting introduction, and supplemented by helpful annotations; a table of dates to track its composition, publication, and public reception in relation to biographical, cultural and historical events; and a guide for further inquiry and study.

• 9780205632633: Dracula, A Longman Cutural Edition von Bram Stoker, Andrew Elfenbein  € 16,00 [D]*  Neuerscheinung
  

  From Longman's Cultural Edition series, this new edition of Dracula, edited by Andrew Elfenbein, recovers the cultural complexity of Bram Stoker's tale and offers a wide array of contextualizing documents, including contemporary reviews and articles about Eastern Europe, science, gender, and media. 

   

  From Twilight to True Blood, no creation from the British 1890s has a larger profile in contemporary culture than Dracula.  Rather than tracing Dracula through all his later incarnations, this edition offers ways to understand the late Victorian origins of Bram Stoker's remarkable book.  While Dracula never simply reflects contemporary trends, reading it with knowledge of contemporary events and debates can clarify what may otherwise seem puzzling. Throughout, Stoker emphasizes that his vampire story takes place not in a hazy, fictional past, but in a sharply realized England of the 1890s. The materials in the sections of Cultural Contexts illuminate the references to Victorian culture in Stoker's version of this seemingly timeless story.

  This anthology's novel thematic organization provides students with a familiar topic or concept (e.g., money, education, entertainment) to use as a lens for viewing an unfamiliar topic or concept (e.g., alterity, hegemony, the panopticon). Using issues that relate to students' daily lives allows them to create a context, make a connection, or find an entry point, for more abstract or theoretical ideas.

• 9781405899871: Going Astray von Prof Jeremy Tambling  € 29,91 [D]*  Lieferbar
  

  . London streets, its people, its crowds, its buildings. It is Dickens’s constant subject, from his early journalism, Sketches by Boz, to The Uncommercial Traveller, from his first novel, Pickwick Papers,to the unfinished The Mystery of Edwin Drood.

   

  Going Astray: Dickens and London is a major new work of criticism that attempts a reading of Dickens’s novels in the light of the study of London. Its guiding premise is that Dickens’s novels not only use London as a background, but that they are about London, even when they seem not to be. Professor Tambling’s close readings of the novels are interlarded with more theoretical meditations on the nature of the nineteenth century metropolis. It is, then, a study not only of Dickens, but of urban culture, too. The book is informed by theoretical studies of the city, chiefly Walter Benjamin’s Arcades Project, and aims to give a reading of London that is as ‘thick’ as the reading Benjamin gave of Paris. Tambling’s rich prose style, his inquiring mind, and his eye for the odd or arcane detail gives the book a peculiar and engaging eclecticism that is both scholarly and adventurous. The book is supported by almost 100 photographs of sites associated with Dickens’s novels, taken especially for the book, and a selection of historical maps that are reproduced in detail and in full colour. The book closes with a fascinating gazetteer of Dickens’s London. Rooted in a deep understanding of Dickens’s novels and a thorough acquaintance with the city he chose as his subject, Going Astray bring an exciting new slant to an often clichéd area.

  Imaginative Writing is an introductory creative writing text covering the four genres-essay, fiction, poetry, and drama-written by best-selling author Janet Burroway.

  Unlike most texts, Imaginative Writing discusses craft before genre. Each of the first five chapters looks at a specific element of craft-Image, Voice, Character, Setting, and Story-from a perspective that crosses all genres. Chapter 6 explores development and revision and serves as a bridge between the craft and genre chapters. The last four chapters examine the genres-Essay, Fiction, Poetry, and Drama. The book's organization allows students to experiment with creative techniques before deciding on a preferred form. Unique "Try-This" exercises help students develop writing skills.

  LIVING LITERATURE is a distinctive new anthology unique in its focus on literature as one part of a living, fluid conversation across cultures and time periods. 

   

  Each feature in this innovative anthology accentuates the study of literature as a continual dialogue, encouraging students to explore, interact with, and respond to what they read.  Organized by genre, LIVING LITERATURE lends context to a vibrant collection of stories, poems, and plays by highlighting several "moments" in which writers, painters, photographers, critics, filmmakers, and musicians all derive inspiration from one another.  The text then shows students how to add their own voices to that ongoing conversation, and how to go from being passive readers to active participants and critical thinkers. As author John Brereton writes in the book's preface, the "cultural conversation in thinking, speaking, and writing about literature is a powerful means of participating in the world around us-of playing our parts as community and world citizens."

• 9780130207548: Introduction to Shakespeare von Michael Flachmann  € 44,89 [D]*  Titel nicht mehr im Programm
  

  The accuracy and textual integrity of the well-known Pelican edition of the plays plus the brilliant teaching suggestions of a Carnegie Foundation United States Professor of the Year makes this text the perfect choice for your English department course in Drama and Shakespeare. 

   

  Message:  This collection of eleven Shakespearean plays and sonnets brings Shakespeare alive through a combination of innovative, classroom-tested teaching approaches that show Shakespeare's plays are not only radiant literary documents but also exciting dramatic scripts intended for performance before live audiences. This dual emphasis on the literary and theatrical nature of the genre is apparent in the book's title, Shakespeare: From Page to Stage, and in all the instructional material surrounding the plays themselves. The first and most important resource available to you, therefore, is this innovative blended approach to the study of Shakespeare, which combines the exhilaration of live theatre with time-honored elements of literary analysis to help bring the plays alive for a new generation of students. 

   

  Story:  Michael Flachmann wrote this book because none of the current texts on the market combines literary and theatrical teaching techniques in a way that engages student interest and helps present the characters, situations, and language of the plays in a personal, visceral, and exciting fashion. Shakespeare's plays are perceived by most students as boring, pedantic, and difficult to read/understand. This text makes the plays vibrant, fascinating, and relevant to modern students through a unique and highly effective blend of pedagogical approaches

  "Many of my students stumble into vaguely mythological stories in their writing. When I ask them anything about the Bible, they frankly, by and large, don't know. I don't particularly blame them for it. But I do think there is a real problem with the education system that has allowed these great stories to disappear, to fade out of the diet everyone gets at school. It's an essential piece of cultural luggage."
  - Poet Laureate Andrew Motion

  Without an understanding of Biblical stories, readers lose out on much of the richness of English literature, as authors from Milton through T.S. Eliot to Jeanette Winterson draw inspiration from Biblical stories in their own writing.   This user-friendly annotated selection of key passages from the King James’s Bible clarifies the key themes, characters, stories and genealogies for students, offering timelines, a bibliography, and a detailed index for quick and easy reference.

  The original 1984 version, of which this is a revised edition, was written by Bill Stevenson as a response to his students' difficulty with biblical references in literature - a selection from the King James’s Bible that would give the student a notion of what the book contains, including the history of the 1611 text, the strands of imagery that bind the whole together. It gives the student a brief overview of the political, historical and religious contexts of the stories in the Bible as well as a brief history of the different versions of the Bible.

• 9780136040996: Literature von Edgar V. Roberts, Robert Zweig  € 73,78 [D]*  Titel nicht mehr im Programm
  

  For Introduction to Literature courses and Freshman Composition courses that emphasize writing about literature.

   

  When Edgar Roberts taught literature and composition he dedicated a substantial amount of his class time explaining to students how they should prepare their writing assignments.  The more time he spent describing the assignment, the better the final essays.  However, these explicit essay-writing directions were taking up too much of his classroom time.  At that point, Professor Roberts started to write and hand out directions, thus saving him valuable classroom time. Over the years, he tried and tested each assignment in his own classes.  In addition to writing coverage, Professor Roberts recognized that literature classrooms needed both writing about literature instruction and an anthology to meet the needs of the literature and composition course.  

   

  Literature: An Introduction to Reading and Writing, Ninth Edition is founded on the principles of writing about literature.  It is not an afterthought and it is not treated as a separate chapter or appendix; it is the carefully integrated philosophy of Professor Roberts' approach to teaching literature and composition. 

   

  Complete coverage of writing about each element and a total of 36 student essays with accompanying commentary ensure student comprehension of writing about literature and therefore, produce better student papers.

  Literature and the Writing Process combines the best elements of a literature anthology with those of a handbook to guide students through the interrelated process of analytical reading and critical writing.

   

  The authors of Literature and the Writing Process hold to one simple premise: great literature-always thought-provoking, always new-offers a valuable path to teaching both writing and critical thinking skills.  By seamlessly integrating literature and composition into one multi-purpose text, this approach serves the dual process of enabling students both to enjoy, understand, and learn from imaginative literature; and to write clearly, intelligently, and correctly about what they have learned.   Text writing assignments use literature as a tool of critical thought, a method for analysis, and a way of communicating ideas.  This approach emphasizes writing as the focus of the book with literature as the means to write effectively.

  By combining the elements of a literature anthology with those of a handbook, Literature and the Writing Process guides students through the interrelated process of analytical reading and critical writing.

   

  Throughout decades of combined teaching and writing experience the authors of LIterature and the Writing Process have held to a simple premise: great literature is always thought-provoking, always new; why not utilize it to sharpen critical thinking and improve writing skills? Grown out of this long-standing interest in the possibility of integrating the study of literature with the practice of composition, Literature and the Writing Process has become a unique and time-tested staple in literature and composition classes. By seamlessly integrating literature and composition into one multi-purpose text, this approach serves the dual process of enabling students to enjoy, understand, and learn from imaginative literature; and to help them write clearly, intelligently, and correctly about what they have learned.

  Message:  Literature and the Writing Process promotes interactive learning by integrating writing instruction with the study of literature.  Its approach utilizes writing as a mode of learning, as a means for promoting critical thinking, as a method for exploring and developing insights and ideas about literary works.  The process-oriented instruction shows students how to use writing as a way of studying literature and gives them the tools to analyze literature on their own.

  This book allows instructors to teach writing and literature together in a single course.  The complementary processes of reading and writing work together to improve students' compositional skills and increase their comprehension of imaginative literature.

   Story:  This textbook grew out of the authors' long-standing interest in integrating the study of literature with the practice of composition.  Many of their students have learned to write perceptively and well using literature as their subject matter.  Great literature is always thought-provoking, always new.  Why not utilize it to sharpen critical thinking and improving writing skills?  Toward that end, we have combined an introduction to literature anthology with detailed instruction in the writing process.

  Message:  Roberts has the best coverage of writing about literature.  Complete coverage of writing about each element and a total of 23 student essays with accompanying commentary ensure student comprehension of writing about literature and therefore, produce better student papers. 

   

  Story:  When Edgar Roberts taught literature and composition many years ago, a large part of his course work involved essay writing assignments.  He would dedicate a substantial amount of his class time explaining how the students should prepare their writing assignments and he discovered that the more he described to his students what he wanted, and the longer he explained things, the better the final essays turned out to be.  He realized that there was a direct correlation between the way he made his assignments and the quality of student work he received. 

   

  However, giving his students such explicit essay-writing directions was taking up too much of his classroom time.  At that point, Professor Roberts started to write and hand out directions, thus saving him valuable classroom time. Over the years, he tried and tested each assignment in his own classes.  In addition to writing coverage, Professor Roberts recognized that literature classrooms needed both writing about literature instruction and an anthology to meet the needs of the literature and composition course. 

   

  Literature: An Introduction to Reading and Writing, Compact Edition is founded on the principles of writing about literature.  It is not an afterthought and it is not treated as a separate chapter or appendix; but rather, it is the carefully integrated philosophy of Professor Roberts' approach to teaching literature and composition. 

   

  In addition to his own contributions to the book, Professor Roberts has also made innumerable changes and improvements based on both student questions and student writing as well as from professor feedback.  To this day, each new edition is revised and perfected based on professor and student needs to meet the changing needs of today's students.  

  
  
  
• 9780321113498: Literature, Reading and Writing with Critical Strategies von Steven Lynn  € 71,64 [D]*  Titel nicht mehr im Programm
  

  Literature: Reading and Writing with Critical Strategies energizes literary study by showing students how to use critical approaches to engage literary texts and evolve critical arguments.

  Lynn's truly innovative text shows students how to use critical strategies to engage with literary texts and develop critical arguments. Plentiful examples demonstrate the process of writing about literature-progressing from a blank page to an insightful response and ultimately to a final essay-using a variety of theories as invention strategies. A richly diverse selection of literary works provides students with thematically-tied materials to read and write about fiction, poetry, and drama.

  Nancy Kennedy of Edmonds Community College concluded, "...a promising new text is on the way, one that could become a standard in its field."

For in-depth reading, "career study" sections in fiction and poetry focus on the work of James Baldwin, Alice Munro, Gary Snyder, and Adrienne Rich, while the drama section includes two plays by Sophocles, as well as Shakespeare's Hamlet and The Tempest. In all, the text includes 46 short stories, 14 plays, and 345 poems.

  Literature is presented in reader-friendly steps to help students toward the fullest response to literature.

  Chapter examples and questions show students the analytical tools and procedural steps for experiencing and writing about literature, while case-study models and critical essays help them compose their responses in writing. Chapters on writing about fiction, poetry, and drama help students make connections between the reading and writing process.

  Roberts delivers the best coverage of writing about literature. Complete coverage of writing about fiction, poetry, and drama and a total of 32 student essays with accompanying commentary ensure student comprehension of writing about literature, which helps students produce better papers.

  Edgar Roberts was inspired to create his first book—Writing about Literature—as a direct result of his experiences in the college classroom. Professor Roberts noticed that there was a clear correlation between the level of detail he provided when explaining his class assignments and the quality of work he received from his students: the more class time he devoted to describing what he wanted, the better the final essays turned out to be. As a result of this observation, Roberts created his successful text Writing about Literature to fill this need in literature and composition classrooms everywhere. 
  
  Soon afterwards, Roberts realized that literature classrooms needed both the instruction provided in Writing about Literature and an anthology to meet the needs of a course based around that text. This led him to create Literature: An Introduction to Reading and Writing. This volume contains classroom-tested selections in the areas of fiction, poetry, and drama, with analysis of each. Additionally, Roberts provides explanatory material in all relevant subject areas drawn from his years of experience teaching literature.

Within its pages, canonical authors mingle with newly visible writers; English accents are heard next to Anglo-Norman, Welsh, Gaelic, and Scottish ones; female and male voices are set in dialogue; literature from the British Isles is integrated with post-colonial writing; and major works are illuminated by clusters of shorter texts that bring literary, social, and historical issues vividly to life.

  Fresh and up-to-date introductions and notes are written by an editorial team whose members are all actively engaged in teaching and in current scholarship, and 150 illustrations show both artistic and cultural developments from the medieval period to the present.

   

  The Fourth Edition builds on the pioneering features of the previous three editions, expanding the strong core of frequently taught works while continuing to lead the way in responding to the shifting interests of the discipline.

• 9781405840606: Lyrical Ballads von William Wordsworth, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, Prof  € 20,28 [D]*  Lieferbar
  

  Lyrical Ballads by William Wordsworth and Samuel Taylor Coleridge is a unique work of literature. first published in 1798, it marked a radical change in the direction of English Literature. Lyrical Ballads represented a movement away from the overwrought, highly formal and learned verse of the 18th century and in so doing ushered in a new, more democratic poetic era.

  Written in the language of the common man and addressing the concerns of the common man, Lyrical Ballads was the first - and remains the most - truly revolutionary collection of poetry, paving the way for the great Romantic poets - keats, Byron, Shelley et al. - and proving that, while there was no actual revolution on the ground, England could still be the most revolutionary of places.

  ‘Lyrical Ballads was not a single phenomenon but a sequence of four editions spread over seven years; its appearance in English literature was not a historical moment but a sequence of moments - 1798, 1800, 1802, 1805.’ this edition - based on the 1805 edition, but looking back on each of the previous publications - shows how this collection developed, how it was refined and added to by the authors. No other edition on the market has such a wealth of key background information.

• 9781405836166: Re:Verse, Turning Towards Poetry von Prof Jeremy Tambling  € 27,77 [D]*  Lieferbar
  

  Many people are intimidated by poetry, thinking it difficult and high-brow and not for them. But it is still considered an essential part of art and literature. RE-Verse asks; Why and How should we read poetry?

  This book, aimed at people just starting with literature, takes nothing for granted but opens poetry up to all in a way that makes it both exciting and fresh. Examples are taken from a balanced combination of traditional writers such as Keats, Wordsworth, Blake and Shakespeare, and modern poets such as Seamus Heaney, Jackie Kay and Benjamin Zephaniah.

  RE-Verse ranges over all periods of literature, and over the many critical theories that attempt to show why poetry matters. It places poems into their historical context, looks at poetry in translation, and discusses why much poetry is so difficult as to seem almost unreadable.

  It promises to set the standard for talking about how to read poetry, and what to do when this seems to be impossibly difficult. Ultimately, it will be the essential, easy-to-read guide to the subject.

• 9781405840613: Reading Joyce von David Pierce  € 27,77 [D]*  Lieferbar
  

  ‘Is there one who understands me?’

  So wrote James Joyce towards the end of his final work, Finnegans Wake. The question continues to be asked about the author who claimed that he had put so many enigmas into Ulysses that it would ‘keep the professors busy for centuries’ arguing over what he meant.

  Studied by thousands of students and with a huge popular following, Joyce is arguably the greatest writer of the twentieth century, but, for many, his books remain an impenetrable mystery. With the help of an engaging commentary, a guide to Joyce’s writing, and a bank of material gleaned from thirty years teaching Joyce in the classroom, David Pierce has produced a book that makes sense of Joyce’s work for today’s reader. He succeeds in presenting Joyce as an author both more straightforward and infinitely more complex than we had perhaps imagined.

  For courses in Composition and Literature, Argumentative Writing, Writing about Literature, and Introduction to Literature.

  Message:  Based on the premise that literature liberates thinking, and argument disciplines it. This anthology features a critical thinking, analytical approach that students in turn will apply to their own thought and writing processes. It introduces and explains the tools of argument, and presents students with reading selections centered on four enduring themes-Individuality and Community, Nature and Place, Family and Identity, and Power and Responsibility.

  Story:  Reading Literature and Writing Argument springs directly from the authors' experiences as teachers of two college composition courses:  "Writing Argument and Persuasion" and "Writing about Literature."  In both courses, students are enriched, as readers and as writers, through their active engagement with ideas in written text.  With the authors' students experiences in the two composition courses as their guide, they harnessed the courses' complementary strengths in Reading Literature and Writing Argument.  The result is a book that provides students with a range of reading experiences-fiction, non-fiction, poetry, drama-that will immerse them in critical and creative thinking as they address problems and issues from multiple perspectives.  This book prompts students to see language as a way to create meaning in their lives and to see themselves as writers with a purpose and an audience.

• 9780321123695: Reading Our Histories, Understanding Our Cultures, A Sequenced Approach to Thinking, Reading, and Writing von Kathleen McCormick  € 60,94 [D]*  Lieferbar
  

  Reading Our Histories, Understanding Our Cultures is an innovative cultural studies reader based on the assumption that the life of every person is intimately connected to the life of the culture.

  By translating the best of current work in cultural studies and process approaches to writing into practical sequenced assignments, it motivates students to develop essential critical thinking, reading, and writing skills.

  Students are asked to engage in two complementary forms of inquiry consistently throughout the book: "historical analysis," in which they analyze change and continuity over time; and "cultural analysis," in which they explore how and why different perspectives can exist within the same time period.

  This kind of inquiry is meant to engage students' personal interest and, in the process, to reconceptualize what is thought of as "the personal" within larger social contexts. It enables students to move from writing just "opinion" to writing analytically and persuasively about their own perspectives and those of others.

  Reading Our Histories, Understanding Our Cultures teaches students to trace how a particular issue is woven into the larger cultural and social fabric, and to negotiate among different perspectives from the past and present to develop a position of their own. This kind of work is where genuine critical inquiry begins.

  Emphasizing writing as a process and incorporating current critical approaches to literature, the seventh edition of Sylvan Barner's classic text A Short Guide to Writing about Literature offers students step-by-step guidance for writing effective essays. This supplementary text, praised for its accessibility and practicality, includes coverage of fiction, poetry, drama, essays, and film; student essays in each of these genres; and a glossary of critical terms for quick reference. Working from the assumption that good writers are good readers, it begins by offering advice on how students can enrich their reading responses-for instance, by annotating a text or keeping a journal. It then goes on to show students how to formulate ideas for papers and how to develop those ideas into strong, finished essays.

  New features of this edition include:

  • chapters on critical approaches and evaluation of literature
  • expanded checklists for writing and reading

• 9781405899314: The Longman Anthology of Gothic Verse von Prof Caroline Franklin  € 29,91 [D]*  Lieferbar
  

  Gothic verse liberated the dark side of Romantic and Victorian verse: its medievalism, melancholy and morbidity.  Some poets intended merely to shock or entertain, but Gothic also liberated the creative imagination and inspired them to enter disturbing areas of the psyche and to portray extreme states of human consciousness.  This anthology illustrates that journey. 

  This is the first modern anthology of Gothic verse. It traces the rise of Gothic in the late eighteenth century and follows its footsteps through the nineteenth century. Gothic has never truly died as it constantly reinvents itself, and this lively, illustrated and annotated anthology offers students the atmospheric poetry that originally studded terror novels and inspired horror films. Alongside canonical verse by Coleridge, Keats and Poe, it introduces readers to lesser-known authors’ excursions into the macabre and the grotesque. A wide range of poetic forms is included: as well as ballads, tales, lyrics, meditative odes and dramatic monologues, a medievalist romance by Scott and Gothic drama by Byron are also included in full.

  A substantial introduction by Caroline Franklin puts the rise of Gothic poetry into its historical context, relating it both to Romanticism and Enlightenment historicism. Although Gothic fiction has now been receiving serious critical attention for twenty years, Gothic verse has been largely overlooked. It is therefore hoped that this anthology will stimulate scholarly interest as well as readers’ pleasure in these unearthly poems.

A richly illustrated general introduction offers insight into Shakespeare's England and background on the literary, social, and cultural contexts in which Shakespeare wrote and produced plays. Each play is introduced by a descriptive essay designed to help students appreciate the historical contexts and interpretive issues raised by the play, without dictating students' interpretations. Completely revised and updated notes and glosses support student readers line by line, paraphrasing Elizabethan expressions in clear and accessible contemporary language.

  Of all the topics in literary theory, feminism has proved to be the most enduring, the most widely influential and has forced an expansion in the English canon in all periods of study. This lively book addresses women writers in the sixteenth century, taking examples from all genres of writing, including religious works, letters and journals, poetry, fiction, translation and books on childcare. It furthers the debate about women as writers within the period and includes, for comparison , their male counterparts where appropriate to the text. All pieces include useful on-the-page annotation and headnotes and are prefaced by a substantial editor's introduction.

  For introductory literature courses, introductory writing courses, introductory and advanced courses in short fiction, courses in literature with an emphasis on non-western writers.

  Unique in content, this anthology of 113 short stories encompasses a larger geographical range (both Western and non-western) and greater gender balance than is typical of most short-story anthologies, and includes a diverse representation of ethnic voices from within the United States as well as less-frequently-anthologized stories by well-known writers.

Headnotes and questions for each story provide contextual enhancement and guidelines for critical thinking and reflection.
