Texts and Events

This textbook provides beginning undergraduate students with a basic introduction toBritish and American literature by weaving it into a context of contemporary historical events. The authors have created learning material that includes a carefully chosen selection of literary texts, followed by thought-provoking, ‘in-text’ questions which are designed to contribute to a betterunderstanding of the relationship between literature and history.
Texts and Events attempts to be open-ended in its version of the past, encouraging readers to seek knowledge outside thetext by analysing other narratives, both fictional and historical, to which they are referred at the end of each chapter. These ‘Suggestions for Further Study’ include Internet resources that expandupon and present alternatives to the narratives offered here.
