Description
Designed for courses taught at the introductory level in Canadian universities and colleges, this new anthology provides a rich selection of literary texts. In each genre the anthology includes a vibrant mix of classic and contemporary works. Each work is accompanied by an author biography and by explanatory notes, and each genre is prefaced by a substantial introduction. Pedagogically current and uncommon in its breadth of representation, The Broadview Introduction to Literature invites students into the world of literary study in a truly distinctive way.
The anthology is unlike others on the market in its inclusion of a section on nonfiction prose. The Broadview Anthology of Literature: Literary Nonfiction collects fourteen important essays and prose narratives, including new translations of Montaigne's "On Cannibals" and Seneca's "Epistle 47: On Slaves."
