The Norton Introduction to Literature by Kelly Mays
The Norton Introduction to Literature, Shorter Tenth Edition, includes a diverse selection of literature that fits any course, balancing exciting contemporary pieces with perennially popular classics. The Shorter Tenth Edition is more flexible, helpful, and innovative than ever, with new albums of thematically linked pieces, an expanded treatment of the contexts of literature, and in-text pedagogy and emedia features that hone students’ reading, analytical, and writing skills.
Alison Booth, Professor of English at the University of Virginia with a Ph.D. from Princeton (1986), specializes in Victorian studies, the novel, and women writers, while her teaching and research also range broadly--across the Atlantic and up to contemporary cultural studies--to encompass narrative theory, biography and autobiography, and celebrity. Her numerous articles and essays have appeared in distinguished journals and collections. She is the author of two acclaimed critical books: the prize-winning How to Make It as a Woman: Collective Biographical History from Victoria to the Present (2004), and Greatness Engendered: George Eliot and Virginia Woolf (1992), and co-editor of the Norton Introduction to Literature (now in its ninth edition). Her current research, reflected in the Longman Cultural Edition of Wuthering Heights, involves the popular genre of homes and haunts of famous people, literary tourism, and the character of famous writers' houses.
