Editorial Reviews
Praise for The Broadview Introduction to Literature
“Of all the anthologies available for introducing university students to the study of literature, this one stands apart as particularly valuable, comprehensive, and engaging.” — Dana Medoro, University of Manitoba
“The editors do not privilege one country, author, century, or genre over another. Rather, this anthology invites readers to consider markedly different … orientations to the study of literature and the multiple ways in which writers present complex ideas and human experience.” — Deborah Torkko, Vancouver Island University
“Informative, accessible, and far from dry, The Broadview Introduction to Literature encourages students to make the transition from literary appreciation to literary analysis, and, just as important, to enjoy doing so.” — Vanessa Warne, University of Manitoba
“The editors’ choices reflect a rapidly expanding literary canon and at the same time respect the diverse composition of most first-year university classrooms. This collection combines frequently anthologized texts with refreshingly unusual additions.” — Heather Meek, Université de Montréal
