By David Damrosch April Alliston David L. Pike, et al.

The Longman Anthology of World Literature, Volume 2 offers a fresh presentation of the varieties of world literature from the 17th century to the present day. KEY TOPICS: The editors of the anthology have sought to find economical ways to place texts within their cultural contexts, and have selected and grouped our materials in ways intended to foster connections and conversations across the anthology, between eras as well as regions. The anthology includes epic, lyric poetry, drama, and prose narrative, with many works in their entirety. Classic major authors are presented together with more recently recovered voices as the editors seek to suggest something of the full literary dialogue of each region and period. Engaging introductions, scholarly annotations, regional maps, pronunciation guides, and illustrations will provide a supportive editorial setting. MARKET: For anyone interested in world literature.
