Literature in Context

This text examines a key topic in modern literary studies.

Contextual factors shape our perception of how literary texts are made, and how they are read.

The understanding of conceptual factors is becoming increasingly more fundamental to the study of English at undergraduate and A level standard.

The book contains essays by scholars on the contextual understanding of works of literature from Chaucer to the modern day.

The text and authors chosen are central to a level and undergraduate syllabuses, and the book is endorsed by the QCA and the CCUE.
