This series of literary criticism from  Gale takes a wholly unique approach&#175it analyzes works from a historical, political, and social perspective rather than a strictly literary view. ..All terms and events are well explained and related to the piece of literature.  The represented works tend to be each author's best known or most often studied by students. ..By emphasizing the context of literture, it offers a unique perspective and a fresh approach and will be a valuable set in larger school, public, and academic libraries.   -- Booklist ( December 2001)
