Each volume is written by a leading specialist to be invitingly accessible and informative. Chapters are devoted to the coverage of cultural context, the provision of brief but detailed biographical essays on the authors concerned, critical coverage of key works, and surveys of themes and topics, together with bibliographies of selected further reading. Students new to a period of study (for example, the English Renaissance, or the Romantic period) or to a period genre (the nineteenth-century novel, Victorian poetry) will discover all they need to know to orientate and ground themselves in their studies, in volumes that are as stimulating to read as they are convenient to use.  \nPublished  \nThe English Renaissance English Renaissance Drama The Victorian Novel  \nTwentieth-Century American Poetry Children’s Literature  \nGothic  \nForthcoming Literary Theory Anglo-Saxon Literature  \nAndrew Hadﬁeld Peter Womack  \nLouis James Christopher MacGowan Peter Hunt  \nDavid Punter and Glennis Byron  \nGregory Castle  \nMark C.
