Read by millions of students over seven editions, The Norton Anthology of English Literature remains the most trusted undergraduate survey of English literature available and one of the most successful college texts ever published. Firmly grounded by the hallmark strengths of all Norton Anthologies -- thorough and helpful introductory matter, judicious annotation, complete texts wherever possible -- the Eighth Edition has been revitalized through the collaboration of six new editors and six seasoned ones. Under Stephen Greenblatt, General Editor, the editors have rethought all aspects of the anthology to make it an even better teaching tool. - Back cover.
