The Board recommends it for every collection whose users conduct analytical studies of literature. Reference Books Bulletin The powerful hold that literature exercises is based primarily on recognition--the reader's ability to identify with others through shared human concerns that transcend ttace, time, and cultural boundaries. These universal themes, and how they have been treated in literature from the classical period to the present, are the subject of the critical essays comprising this volume. A fascinating resource for students and general readers and an essential research tool for scholars in literature, it is the first thematic reference on this scale to be published in English. The dictionary consists of 143 essays contributed by 98 specialists in world literature. Topics covered include themes relating to adventure, family life, the supernatural, eroticism, status, humor, idealism, terror, and many other categories of human experience. Each entry begins with a defintion and a sketch on the origin and historical background of the literary theme. The topical essay discusses the significance and occurrence of the theme in world literature and supplies information on geographical area, genre, style, and chronology. Entries conclude with a selected bibliography of scholarship in the area. A cross-index to themes and motifs will enable the reader to find information on secondary or related topics. Convenient to use and presented in a standardized format, this major new reference will be an important acquisition for libraries with collections in English, American, and world literature.

Book Synopsis Dictionary of English Literature by : William Davenport Adams
Download or read book Dictionary of English Literature written by William Davenport Adams and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-03 with total page 710 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Dictionary of English Literature: Being a Comprehensive Guide to English Authors and Their Works Further, the Noms de Plume assumed by literary men and women are given and explained, many for the first time. Familiar Quotations, Phrases, and Proverbs are entered in considerable numbers, with distinct and accurate references to their original sources. These are arranged, so far as possible, according to their first striking word - a plan which has seemed to the Author the most useful and intelligible that could be adopted. Characters in Poetry and Fiction are largely indexed - to an extent, indeed, not hitherto attempted, and with the result, it is believed, that few of any importance are omitted. Illustrative Quotations are frequently appended. The most celebrated Poems, Songs, and Ballads are entered, not only by their titles, but by their First Lines, which are frequently remembered when the titles are forgotten. A feature of the Work is the introduction of references to Translations of the Works of prominent Foreign Writers of all times and countries. Another feature is the insertion of notices of some of the most celebrated Libraries throughout the kingdom, and of Societies connected with English Literature. Space is also devoted to brief, but, it is hoped, sufficient explanations of the various kinds of Literature, such as Epics, Odes, Masques, Mysteries, and so on. Finally, Special Articles, as exhaustive as their limits would permit, have been introduced on such subjects as The Drama, Newspapers, Novels, and Poetry, with the view of enabling the reader to systematise, if he please, the varied information given in other portions of the work. A work so comprehensive in aim - necessitating the survey of so wide, so inexhaustible a field - can hardly be quite free from error. Yet the Author would fain hope that no signal inaccuracy will be detected; and while committing his pages to the consideration of the public, he feels it due to himself to say that, during the years occupied in the preparation of the work, he has grudged no labour to make it worthy of the favourable reception he trusts it will obtain.

Book Synopsis A Dictionary of Literary Pseudonyms in the English Language by : T.J. Carty
Download or read book A Dictionary of Literary Pseudonyms in the English Language written by T.J. Carty and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-12-03 with total page 859 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In its first edition Dictionary of Literary Pseudonyms established itself as a comprehensive dictionary of pseudonyms used by literary writers in English from the 16th century to the present day. This new Second Edition increases coverage by 35%! There are two sequences: Part I - which now includes more than 17,000 entries- is an alphabetical list of pseudonyms followed by the writer's real name. Part II is an alphabetical list of writers cited in Part I-more than 10,000 writers included-providing brief biographical details followed by pseudonyms used by the wrter and titles published under those pseudonyms. Dictionary or Literary Pseudonyms has now become a standard reference work on the subject for teachers, student, and public, high school, and college/universal librarians. The Second Edition will, we believe, consolidate that reputation.
