Read by millions of students over seven editions, "The Norton Anthology of English Literature" remains the most trusted undergraduate survey of English literature available and one of the most successful college texts ever published. Firmly grounded by the hallmark strenghts of all Norton Anthologies - thorough and helpful introductory matter, judicious annotation, complete texts wherever possible- the Eight Edition has been revitalized through the collaboration of six new editiors and six seasoned ones. Under Stephen Greenblatt, General Editor, the editiors have rethought all aspects of the anthology to make it an even better teaching tool.

Highlights of Volume 2
- Complete Longer Texts: Three major prose works - Robert Louis Stevenson's "The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde", Brian Friel's "Translations", and Tom Stoppard's "Arcadia" - join such major inclusions as Joseph Conrad's "Heart of Darkness", Virginia Woolf's "A Room of One's Own", and Chinua Achebe's "Things Fall Apart". New long poems include Charlotte Smith's "Beachy Head", Elizabeth Barrett Browning's "The Runaway Slave at Pilgrim Point", and Dante Gabriel Rossetti's "Jenny"
- Twentieth-Century Literature in English: The Norton Anthology is unmatched in its representation of global literature in English. Joining such writers as W.B. Yeats, Jean Rhys, Nadine Gordimer, Derek Welcott, Chinua Achebe, Alice Munro, V.S. Naipaul, Seamus Heaney, J.M. Coetzee and Salman Rushdie are seven new writers of diverse origins - Claude McKay, Louise Bennett, Brian Friel, Kamau Brathwaite, Ngugi wa Thiong'o, John Agard, and Anne Carson
- Lecture-Length Topics: Topical clusters - groupings of historically or culturally significant writings that illuminate the literary selections - have been reconceived to make them easier to teach in a classroom meeting or two. New to Volume 2 are "The Gotic and the Development of Mass Readership", "Empire and National Identity", "Modernist Manifestos" and "Nation and Language"
- New Color-Plates and In-Text-Features: Twenty-four pages of color plates, redrawn endpaper maps, a new glossary of literary terminology, rewritten appendixes on English money and religions in England, a revised Poems in Process section, updated timelines and bibliographies, as well as thousands of finetunings to introductions, glosses and annotations improve upon the reader's apparatus for which the Norton Anthology is acclaimed.
