| Summary: | To be anthologized is undoubtedly a mark, if not always of
excellence, at least of recognition and distinction. For reasons

Gilbert (Princeton University) and Susan Gubar (Indiana University), this recent addition to the acknowledged series of Norton anthologies successfully charts and delineates a distinctively female literary tradition. |
