Literature and Ourselves: A Thematic Introduction for Readers and Writers - Brossura

Literature and Ourselves, 3/e is a thematically arranged anthology that focuses on issues of self and self-exploration. With each of the six themes-Family, Men and Women, Human Vulnerability, Freedom and Responsibility, Art and Language, and Quest-the authors make literature real to the students in a personal way. Within each theme-Literature and Ourselves provides a unique combination of traditional and contemporary works organized by genre-essays, fiction, poetry, and drama-that reflect the diverse cultures and ethnicities that make up our world today. The third edition features enhanced coverage of the writing process, three new casebooks (August Wilson, Three Poets: Robert Frost, Emily Dickinson, Langston Hughes, and Katherine Anne Porter) and new material on research and the Internet.
