This anthology has been highly praised:. . "...the editors appear to be clearly aware of the ways in which literature develops out of tradition, historical circumstance, and new visions of older texts. Everything in the book is calculated to present the sense of rupture and repetition, order and chaos present during this period and to do so with all the tools necessary to allow students both to access the works and explore their own interests and associations. . . Compared to the older but good Patt/Nozick and Greenfield anthologies, which were perhaps the nearest attempts to join the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, this book is a great advance and should be around for many editions to come.".
