With a new added chapter chronicling writings from the twenty-first century, this ideal volume isto dateunique, unrivalled." Suriyan Panlay, Thammasat University, Thailand "The third edition of this extensive and clearly written volume will be welcome to readers keen to historicize the development of English from Caedmons Hymn to the writing of Kazuo Ishiguro. By assessing the reach of English both globally and within the shifting landscape of the British Isles, the authors address questions of dialect, regionalism and nationhood alongside those of genre, form, lexicon and aesthetics. The focus on social and political context in conversation with close readings of specific texts makes this a helpful introduction to the writing and reading of English today."
