| Resumen: |
Este libro es una antología de extractos de escritos literarios (en prosa, verso y teatro) sobre Londres y sus diversos habitantes, tomados desde el ascenso de la reina Isabel I en 1558 hasta el estallido de la Gran Guerra en 1914. Los 143 extractos, divididos en cuatro períodos (1558-1659, 1660-1780, 1781-1870 y 1871-1914), varían entre aproximadamente 250 palabras y 2500. Cada uno de los cuatro períodos tiene una introducción que trata sobre desarrollos sociales, geográficos e históricos relevantes, y cada extracto se presenta con una nota de encabezado contextualizadora y notas a pie de página explicativas. Además, la introducción general a la antología aborda algunas de las cuestiones literarias que surgen al escribir sobre Londres, y el libro termina con muchas sugerencias para lecturas adicionales. Debería atraer no sólo al lector general interesado en Londres y su representación, sino también a los estudiantes de literatura en cursos sobre "lectura de la ciudad". . |
