" The purpose of the audio companion is to provide readings and performances that cannot be duplicated readily in the classroom. The resulting selections are of four kinds: poems read by the authors themselves, from Tennyson to Heaney and Walcott: passages of Old English and Middle English poems, read by experts in the pronunciation of those languages; poems in Scots dialect and poems written in sprung rhythm; and performances of poems set to music.The texts of all the recordings are included in the two-volume Norton Anthology: most are available in the Major Authors volume as well. The contents of the audio companion were chosen after an intensive search of available recordings and audio collections, including the immense storehouse of recorded material in the Library of Congress. To these have been added a large number of performances especially commissioned from readers and musicians in the united States and abroad. The resulting recordings provide a wide-ranging sampling of poems in which the printed texts are fleshed out in spoken word and song." The contents of each CD is listed and there is even a length of time given and a track number.

This anthology covers writers and works of English literature. Among the major works included are the complete texts of Milton's "Paradise Lost" and Mary Shelley's "Frankenstein"; Shakespeare's "Twelfth Night"; Beckett's tragicomic "Endgame"; and Achebe's "Things Fall Apart". The 7th edition features works by 60 women writers, 21 writers new to the "Norton Anthology", 20 represented with additional selections or reselected works. Fourteen new and expanded thematic clusters gather short texts that illuminate cultural, historical, and literary concerns within each period. Examining 20th-century literature in English, this edition reflects the global reach of literature in English with ten new authors - Jean Rhys, Chinua Achebe, Alice Munro, V. S. Naipaul, Anita Desai, Les Murray, Salman Rushdie, J. M. Coetzee, Eavan Boland, and Paul Muldoon. "The Persistence of English", a new essay by Geoffrey Nunberg, Stanford University and Xerox Palo Alto Research Center, provides a lively exploration of the English language - its emergence and spread, and its apparent "triumph" as a world language. Visual materials are included from several periods - Hogarth's satiric "Marriage A-la-Mode", engravings by Blake, and illustrations by Dante Gabriel Rossetti. Period introductions, author headnotes, annotations, and bibliographies have been thoroughly revised, many completely rewritten, for the 7th Edition. New pedagogical features include timelines for each period and revised endpaper maps. The text is accompanied by 2 audio CDs.
