Norton Anthology Of Literature By Women (Boxed Set, Volumes 1 And 2) Available To Downloads
Long the standard teaching anthology, the landmark Norton Anthology of Literature by Women has introduced generations of readers to the rich variety of women’s writing in English. Now, the much-anticipated Third Edition responds to the wealth of writing by women across the globe with the inclusion of 61 new authors (219 in all) whose diverse works span six centuries. A more flexible two-volume format and a versatile new companion reader make the Third Edition an even better teaching tool. "As diversity itself has shaped the evolution of feminist criticism, from its early preoccupation with women's shared experiences to its more recent absorption in the complex issues and assumptions informing English-language texts by women writers of diverse geographical, cultural, racial, sexual, religious, and class origins and influences, so diversity has shaped the revisions of this anthology." ―From the Preface

This anthology has been invaluable as a literature major at a small private university. I am happy to say that this is one volume I would not consider selling back at the end of the semester! Wonderful selection of both contemporary and past authors that have written on a variety of topics. I would highly recommend this edition to all! The headnotes on each author are fabulous additions to each text as well that grant the reader historical context for each selection.One thing that sets this anthology apart is the inclusion of authors not traditionally used in canonical works!
This anthology was a bit hit-and-miss with me. I loved the newer selections of writing, but found some of the older stuff to be, well, dated. That could just be a matter of taste though, and there's a lot to like in these anthologies.Like all Norton anthologies, the introductions are great and helpful in finding common ground with some of the older stuff. I bought these for a college class, and kept the on my bookshelf afterwards, so that's saying something.
This is the best anthology of Women's Literature ever. If you have no other book of Women's Literature this is the one to have.
Includes works by canonical British and American female writers and poets. Relatively few African, Middle-eastern, or Asian female writers. Recommend you look elsewhere if you are studying women writers from one of the above regions.
I am using this book for class and I do not have a problem with the book just with the description of the product. It is very misleading when it states that it is a boxed set because you only receive volume 1 of the book not both. So just a heads up for anyone who plans on buying this book.
This was exactly what was described as I needed it for my college Intro to Womens Literature class and the boxed set was paperback and wrapped in plastic. Very pleased with my purchase.
Excellent reading. Very informative. Wonderful class. Really enjoyed the different authors within this book. Would recommend this to anyone interested in Women's literature.
These are the required books for my class in literature this term. I am enjoying the information and the pieces that are written in these books. They are a little expensive, but what good books aren't? I really like them and am glad I bought new and not rented, so I could make my on marks in them as I see fit.
