The Oxford Anthology of English Literature: Volume I: The Middle Ages through the Eighteenth Century: 001

"Fantastic!"--Jane Focht-Hansen, San Antonio College "A sexy text for advanced students of literature. Well-organized and thorough!!"--Jason Ablin, Yeshiva University of Los Angeles "Has an integrity that other anthologies have forsaken. The medieval texts are beautifully translated, or--in Chaucer's case--well transliterated in modern characters and letters. The English Renaissance and Restoration and Eighteenth Century sections carry a wealth of supplemental material and editorial commentary, nearly all of it essential to my students."--James A. Scruton, Bethel College "Excellent....Best selection of English literature, especially since it includes so many plays."--Jimmie E. Thomas, Western New England College "Wonderfully comprehensive."--Michael Shugrue, The College of Staten Island, CUNY "Excellent. Comprehensive selections with fine introductions that are intelligible to the average student and also informative for the superior student."--Arvilla K. Taylor. Midwestern State University "An excellent edition! I am pleased with the comprehensive contents and breadth of selections. I am extremely happy to see the art reproductions and maps--these greatly assist the student in comprehending the context in which the literature was produced."--Paul S. Burdett, Jr., City University of New York, Staten Island "I like all the Romantic and Victorian paintings reproductions."--Helen Robbins, Arkansas College "I'm very impressed with the quality of selection and presentation--I find this a far more appealing book than its competitor; it engages students and will act as a valuable reference/resource for them long after the completion of the semester."--Janet Madden, El Camino College "Excellent selections, organized and introduced helpfully for the introductory or more experienced reader."--Robert Warburton, College of Du Page
