Description
Shaped by sound literary and historical scholarship, The Broadview Anthology of British Literature takes a fresh approach to many canonical authors and includes a broad 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 matters such as race, gender, class, and sexual orientation. The full anthology comprises six bound volumes, together with an extensive website component; a passcode to access the latter is included with the purchase of one or more of the bound volumes. A two-volume Concise Edition and a one-volume Compact Edition are also available.
Highlights of Volume 5: The Victorian Era include the complete texts of In Memoriam A.H.H., The Importance of Being Earnest, Carmilla, and Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, as well as Contexts sections on “Work and Poverty,” “Women in Society,” “Sexuality in the Victorian Era,” “Nature and the Environment,” “The New Woman,” and “Britain, Empire, and a Wider World.” The third edition also offers expanded representation of writers of color, including Mary Prince, Mary Seacole, Toru Dutt, and Rabindranath Tagore.

Editorial Reviews
COMMENTS ON VOLUME 5: THE VICTORIAN ERA, THIRD EDITION
“[This] is the expansive anthology for which many Victorianists have been waiting. … Mary Seacole is here along with Thomas Carlyle; Toru Dutt and Tekahionwake/E. Pauline Johnson share space with Thomas Hardy and George Meredith. Instructors who wish to decolonize and undiscipline the curriculum will find a wealth of resources, as will those who want to teach more traditional Victorian literary texts.” — Kate Lawson, University of Waterloo
“Volume 5: The Victorian Era is both an outstanding anthology and an indispensable companion to the nineteenth century. The period presented here is distinctively plural. … Canonical writers rub shoulders with non-canonical ones; and we are taken from Lowood to 221B Baker Street, and from Hyderabad to fantastical worlds.” — Tom Ue, Dalhousie University
“This third edition … remains a classroom text that will also teach the teachers, even those who have been introducing students to nineteenth-century literature for years. The anthology’s selection of texts and its editorial materials will prepare its readers to consider both familiar and emerging issues in the study of Victorian literature and culture.” — Richard Menke, University of Georgia
“This new edition once more proves that the Broadview Anthology is not merely a collection of important works, but an outstanding pedagogical tool.” — Sara Malton, Saint Mary’s University
“The volume now includes a number of colonial writers and writers of color who did not appear in the last edition. … New sections of contextual materials have also been added on such topics as ‘Nature and the Environment’ and ‘Sexuality and Sexual Transgression,’ making it easier for instructors to integrate these key subjects into the undergraduate classroom. Altogether, this is a vital and innovative anthology, skillfully assembled and beautifully edited.” — Elizabeth Carolyn Miller, University of California, Davis
“The Authors in Context sections are excellent. The selections—letters, images, backgrounds, and complementary texts—allow students to make connections and understand Victorian authors as participating in a living and recognizable world. … What sets this anthology apart from others, in addition to the contexts, is its extensive selections of longer prose and poetic works, [including complete texts] of Tennyson’s In Memoriam, Le Fanu’s Carmilla, Meredith’s Modern Love, Stevenson’s Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, and Wilde’s The Importance of Being Earnest.” — LeeAnne Richardson, Georgia State University
COMMENTS ON THE BROADVIEW ANTHOLOGY OF BRITISH LITERATURE
“… sets a new standard by which all other anthologies of British Literature will now have to be measured.” — Graham Hammill, SUNY Buffalo
“This is a very real intellectual, as well as pedagogical, achievement.” — Nicholas Watson, Harvard University
“… an excellent anthology. Good selections for my purposes (including some nice surprises), just the right level of annotation, affordable—and a hit with my students. I will definitely use it again.” — Ira Nadel, University of British Columbia
