Features: Compared to the previous five editions, the 6th edition of the Oxford Companion to American Literature inherits its original openness, inclusiveness, and impartiality. It presents the diversity of American literary development to readers with an open and inclusive attitude, unbound by form, length, or status. At the same time, the 6th edition is more contemporary and comprehensive. It not only reexamines and revises entries for established authors but also timely expands introductions for writers who gained prominence after the 1980s, thereby reflecting the full picture of American literary development in a more up-to-date, broader, authoritative, and complete manner.
