"For the third edition the anthology has been very substantially revised; a selection of classic essays from earlier eras has been retained, but the emphasis is very much on twenty-first century expository writing. As with earlier editions, works of different lengths, levels of difficulty, and subject matter are all represented, as are narrative, descriptive and persuasive essays. But for the new edition there are considerably more short pieces than ever before. A number of op ed pieces are included, as are pieces from blogs and from online news sources. Lyric and experimental essays are now featured, and numerous "paired" essays take opposing points of view on the same topic, are in conversation with each other, or approach the same subject in different genres. The representation of academic writing from several disciplines has been increased-and in some cases the anthology also includes news reports presenting the results of academic research to a general audience. Also new to this edition are essays from a wide range of the most celebrated essayists of the modern era-from James Baldwin, Joan Didion, and Annie Dillard to Eula Biss and Ta-Nehisi Coates. The anthology remains broad in its thematic coverage, but certain themes receive special emphasis-notably, issues of race, class, and culture in twenty-first century America. For the new edition the headnotes have been expanded, providing students with more information as to the context in which each piece was written. Questions and suggestions for discussion have been moved online to the instructor website."-- Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
