内容简介

Grade 9 Up-These 350 essays on writers and movements from the 1600s to the present illuminate the richness of American literature。 Each writer entry (representing a diverse array of mostly 20th-century novelists,poets,short-story writers,playwrights,and essayists) provides biographical information along with historical perspectives and social context, analysis of long-term literary impact, and a list of works and suggestions for further reading。Longer essays, such as the 10-page article on Stephen Crane,provide criticism on selected works and may be followed by one of the 45 “master works”essays on a notable title,e.g a five-page critical analysis dedicated to Crane’s The Red Badge of Courage。 Most entries include a portrait。 The 50-plus essays on themes and movements (“Academic Novels” to “Writing as a Woman in the Twentieth Century”)provide genre overviews。Volume one includes a comprehensive list of articles,a chronology that highlights historical parallels to literary works and authors,and a topical outline。 An essential cumulative index appears in volume four。 As in any limited collection of notables,second guessers will inevitably question the inclusion of some writers,works,and movements over others (why not an essay on humor?)。More accessible than the chronological Encyclopedia of American Literature (Facts On File, 2002),and more concise than the "American Writers" literary biography series (Scribners),Oxford provides a wealth of reliable information on standard bearers of American literature in an easy-on-the-eyes format for students and general readers。-Mary Ann Carcich, Hampton Bays Public Library。
