- This definitive Companion provides a critical overview
of literary culture in the period from John Milton to William Blake
(1608-1827).
- Its broad chronological range responds to recent reshapings of
the canon and identifies new directions of study.
- Composed of 60 contributions from leading scholars in the
field, its essays offer students a comprehensive and accessible
survey of the field from a wide range of perspectives.
- The volume meets the needs of an intellectual world
increasingly given over to inter-disciplinary and
multi-disciplinary study by covering philosophical, political,
cultural and historical writing, as well as literary writing.
- Unlike other similar volumes, the main body of the Companion consists of readings of individual texts, both those commonly and less commonly studied.
