The two-volume Broadview Anthology of British Literature, Concise Edition provides an attractive alternative to the full six-volume anthology. Though much more compact, the concise edition nevertheless provides a thoughtful balance between well-established canonical authors and a diverse array of lesser-known works. Guided by the latest scholarship in British literary studies, the anthology is committed to inclusiveness, social responsibility, and contextualization. With an unparalleled number of illustrations and contextual materials, accessible and engaging introductions, and full explanatory annotations, the concise edition of this acclaimed Broadview anthology provides focused yet wide-ranging coverage for British literature survey courses.Among the works now included for the first time in the bound book of the Concise Edition, Volume A are poems by Gwerful Mechain, selections from Giovanni Boccaccio's The Decameron, Samson Occom's autobiography, and selections from Samuel Richardson's Pamela and Frances Burney's Evelina. There are also new omnibus sections, including an expanded "Culture: A Portfolio section with material on early modern theater and crossdressing, a revised section on "Other Lands, Other Cultures in the early modern period, and sections addressing "The Enlightenment, "Slavery and Resistance, and "Empire and Enterprise. As before, the concise edition includes a substantial website component, providing instructors with a great degree of flexibility. Material that no longer appears in the bound book may in almost all cases be found in the companion website; many longer works are also available from the publisher in separate volumes that may at the instructor's request be bundled together with this anthology.
