Literature: An Introduction to Reading and Writing (6th Edition)

Rating:
Summary: Great teaching book
Review: This book has a companion video series called Literary Visions. That series alsoo includes a study guide. I would highly recommend it.

Rating:
Summary: Indeed, a good book.
Review: This is a wonderful collection of literature of all kinds. If you're worried about having complete coverage of all aspects of literature in an introductory way, this book is for you.

Assistance on how to write about literature is a great plus. Explication of poetry, essays on prose, and many other kinds of writing is discussed. Examples of writing are also given.

The one complaint that I have is in how the much of the literature is accompanied with perhaps too many notes for the reader. It by no means filters out one's ability to interpret the literature on their own, but sometimes the editor should let the reader think on his/her own!

On the whole, definitely a good book.
