Stephen King: Collection of 21 Novels
Stephen King’s writing is securely rooted in the great American tradition that glorifies spirit-of-place and the abiding power of narrative. He crafts stylish, mind-bending page-turners that contain profound moral truths–some beautiful, some harrowing–about our inner lives. Let me assure you that King's work most definitely is literature, because it was written to be published and is read with admiration. What Snyder really means is that it is not the literature preferred by the academic-literary elite. This is a collection of King's most famous 21 novels.
Teachers of English require knowledge and skills in many areas, including literature, writing and language. In this book, we approach that last of these areas not simply as means for teaching the first two, but rather, as a topic worthy of serious study in itself. We have attempted to provide future teachers with the fundamentals that they will need to explore, along with their students, the nature of language and the nature of the English language, particularly its grammar and its meaning systems.
Teachers, librarians, and students of children's and young adult literature will appreciate the breadth and clarity of this book, as well as the impressive bibliographies of fantasy and of professional reading on it. The authors first set down the definition of and criteria for successful fantasy and then break the genre down into its subgenres, using plenty of examples to illustrate the literature's various manifestations, from fairy tales (both traditional and original) to talking-animal tales to gothic fantasy to heroic-ethical fantasy, and everything in between.
Lordship and Literature - John Gower and the Politics of the Great Household
A ground-breaking approach to the politics of late medieval texts, Lordship and Literature investigates the importance of the great household to late fourteenth-century English culture and society. A sustained new reading of John Gower's major English poem, Confessio Amantis, shows how deeply the great household informed the way Gower and his contemporaries imagined their world. Exploring royal government and gentry ambitions, this thoroughly interdisciplinary book views the period's politics and literature in terms of a household-based economy of power.
