In all six of its volumes The Broadview Anthology of British
Literature presents British literature in a truly distinctive
light. Fully grounded in sound literary and historical scholarship,
the anthology takes a fresh approach to many canonical authors, and
includes a wide selection of work by lesser-known writers. The
anthology also provides wide-ranging coverage of the worldwide
connections of British literature, and it pays attention throughout
to issues of race, gender, class, and sexual orientation. It
includes comprehensive introductions to each period, providing in
each case an overview of the historical and cultural as well as the
literary background. It features accessible and engaging headnotes
for all authors, extensive explanatory annotations, and an
unparalleled number of illustrations and contextual materials.
Innovative, authoritative and comprehensive, The Broadview
Anthology of British Literature has established itself as a leader
in the field. The full anthology comprises six bound volumes,
together with an extensive website component; the latter has been
edited, annotated, and designed according to the same high
standards as the bound book component of the anthology, and is
accessible by using the passcode obtained with the purchase of one
or more of the bound volumes. Intended for courses that focus on
poetry during the Romantic period, this volume includes all the
poetry selections from Volume 4 of The Broadview Anthology of
British Literature, along with a number of works newly edited for
this volume. The Age of Romanticism: Poetry maintains the Broadview
Anthology of British Literature's characteristic balance of
canonical favorites and lesser-known gems, featuring a breadth of
poetry from William Blake to Phyllis Wheatley, from Ebenezer
Elliott to Felicia Hemans. "Contexts" sections provide valuable
background on cultural matters such as "The Natural and the
Sublime" and "The Abolition of Slavery," while the companion
website offers a wealth of additional resources and primary works.
Longer works newly prepared for the bound book include Byron's
Manfred and The Giaour, Keats's Hyperion, and substantial
selections from Wordsworth's fourteen-book Prelude; authors newly
added for this volume include Hannah Cowley, Hannah More, Ann
Yearsley, Robert Southey, and Thomas Moore.
