Encyclopedia of Literature and Politics: Censorship, Revolution, and Writing: Volume 1: A-G

From Isabel Allende to Emile Zola and from Shakespeare to Sartre, literary works have often engaged political issues, and many political writings give close attention to literary concerns. The first work of its kind, this three-volume encyclopedia explores the complex relationship between literature and politics. Included are more than 500 alphabetically arranged entries written by more than 200 expert contributors. These entries cover authors, critics, theorists, and historical figures; major literary works; national literatures and important literary movements; broad critical categories; and specific themes, concepts, and genres. Entries cite works for further reading, and the encyclopedia closes with an extensive bibliography.Booker, M.
