This classic work of literary history has now been updated to cover new developments in writing over the past 20 years. Not only does it provide an encyclopedic survey, but also a personal, chronological interpretation of the English tradition with an emphasis on the continuity of major literary forms and on the ways in which important figures transform the art. The many literary genres, themes, and authors that receive [an] analysis include The Epic Chaucer Two Versions of the Pastoral The Sonnet Spenser's Garden Shakespeare Revenge Tragedy Restoration Comedy Inventing the Novel Gothic Follies Wordsworth and Coleridge and Imagination and Fiction. -http://www.loc.gov/catdir"
