註釋
This basic introduction to British and American literature places the works into their historical context to demonstrate the vibrant relationship between the written word and actual events and periods. The authors offer stimulating questions and encourage readers to seek knowledge beyond the text by analyzing fictional and historical narratives; Internet sites are provided to give alternatives to the narration presented here. Students are challanged to question literary canons, to fill in gaps of historical narratives and to realize that neither can ever be complete. Whether used in a classroom or as a self-instructional text, this book presents a valuable and unique approach to the study of American and British literature and culture.
