Of the New Pelican Guide to English Literature / edited by Boris Ford. - Harmondsworth : Penguin Books, 1982 - 1983.
Vol. 1, part 2 : Medieval Literature: the European Inheritance. - 1983. - 622 p. - Index: p. 615-622. - 3.39 р.


Notwithstanding that the New Pelican Guides to English Literature are devoted to the English tradition, it seemed an attractive and valuable idea to include a new volume on medieval European literature which would complement the volume on English medieval literature. For while many of these English writers were concerned to create their own vernacular literature, they were familiar with, and often indebted to, their European contemporaries. This volume then constitutes a useful and enriching companion to Part One and includes essays on Beowulf, The Song of Roland, Njal’s Saga, The Decameron and Rabelais as well as an anthology of medieval literature in the vernacular.

Ashton, R.
George Eliot / Rosemary Ashton. - New York : Oxford University Press, [2007]. - 87 p. ; 18 см. - (VIP: Very Interesting People ; 2). - Includes bibliographical references (p. 83) and index. - ISBN 978-0-19-921551-1 : 220.00 р.
Перевод заглавия: Джордж Элиот


In this study the author Rosemary Ashton hopes to bring into focus the unusual qualities George Eliot possessed in addition to that of shocking her contemporaries with her private arrangements – her leaderness, her command of several languages, her move away from orthodox religion, her interest in philosophy, science, history, and English and European literature. The author’s aim is to show the continuity of her intellectual, imaginative, and narrative skills from her early letters and reviews to the novels themselves.

Butler, M.
Jane Austen / Marilyn Butler. - New York : Oxford University Press, [2007]. - 119 p. ; 18 см. - (VIP: Very Interesting People ; 13). - ISBN 978-0-19-921760-1 : 220.00 р.
Перевод заглавия: Джейн Остин


Interest in Jane Austen has never been greater, but it is revitalized by the advent of feminist literary history. In this book Professor Butler argues that Austen herself lived in contentious times. Like Wordsworth and Coleridge, she served her literary apprenticeship in the 1790s, the decade of the Terror and the Napoleonic Wars, an era in England of polemic and hysteria. Political partisanship shaped the novel of her youth, in content, form, and style. Austen's works critique the novels of sensibility of the second half of the 18th century and are part of the transition to 19th-century realism. Her plots, though fundamentally comic, highlight the dependence of women on marriage to secure social standing and economic security. Her works, though usually popular, were first published anonymously and brought her little personal fame and only a few positive reviews during her lifetime. The second half of the 20th century saw a proliferation of Austen scholarship and the emergence of a Janeite fan culture.

Campbell, G.
John Milton / Gordon Campbell. - New York : Oxford University Press, [2007]. - 108 p. ; 18 см. - (VIP: Very Interesting People ; 12). - ISBN 978-0-19-921761-8 : 253.00 р.
Перевод заглавия: Джон Мильтон


John Milton's poetry and prose reflect deep personal convictions, a passion for freedom and self-determination, and the urgent issues and political turbulence of his day. Writing in English, Latin, Greek, and Italian, he achieved international renown within his lifetime, and his celebrated Areopagitica — written in condemnation of pre-publication censorship—is among history's most influential and impassioned defenses of free speech and freedom of the press.

Slater, M.
Charles Dickens / Michael Slater. - New York : Oxford University Press, [2007]. - 111 p. ; 18 см. - (VIP: Very Interesting People ; 3). - ISBN 978-0-19-921352-8 : 222.00 р.
Перевод заглавия: Чарльз Дикенс


In this study Michael Slater has tried to tell the story of Dickens’s life within strict limits as to space by focusing primarily (after a short account of Dickens’s childhood, youth and early manhood) upon the story of his books…at all stages of their progress. Thus the emphasis falls upon Dickens’s career as a phenomenally productive and popular writer, both of fiction and non-fiction, while as much attention as possible is also paid to the main events in his personal life, as well as to his crowded and richly-documented social life, his astoundingly extensive and unremitting charitable activities, and his hugely successful second career as a public reader of his own works.

The Concise Oxford Companion to English Literature / ed. by Margaret Drabble, Jenny Stringer. - Second edition. - New York : Oxford University Press, 2003. - 720 p. ; 20 см. - (Oxford paperback reference). - ISBN 0-19-860559-5 : 363.00 р. - ISBN 978-0-19-860559-1 : 363.00 р.
Перевод заглавия: Краткий оксфордский справочник по английской литературе


Based on the sixth edition of Oxford Companion to English Literature, this edition in Oxford's series of paperback reference works packs a great deal of authoritative information into its smaller format. It is intended for students and general readers of British literature, not literature in English around the world. It emphasizes novelists, poets, dramatists, and their works, with some representation of other kinds of writers (journalists, critics, historians, biographers, etc.). Descriptive, not evaluative, its entries provide plot summaries for major works, characters, selected international authors, literary movements and theory. The editors compress most entries and judiciously omit some obscure material and most cross-references. The edition is best as a handbook for undergraduate students, and useful in circulating collections or small libraries.
