Literary studies: general

A synthetic and adaptable framework for guiding students through British literary history from the 1780s through the 1940s.

Designed for both first-time teachers of survey courses in later British literature and more experienced instructors seeking a new way to approach familiar material, A Handbook to Teaching Later British Literature presents a synthetic and adaptable framework for guiding students through British literary history from the 1780s through the 1940s.

'Lucid, learned and engaging, Teaching Later British Literature is finely calibrated to the needs of survey instructors looking to introduce students to this complex and richly rewarding stretch of literary history. Even the most experienced teachers will find this book an invaluable resource.' - Stephen Arata, Professor of English, University of Virginia, USA

'Teaching Later British Literature will be of great aid to new teachers approaching the daunting task of the comprehensive survey; it also offers many valuable notions for those whose courses are in need of a revamp. It is an excellent companion.' - David Latane, Professor of English, Virginia Commonwealth University, USA
