The Norton Library is a growing collection of high-quality texts and translations-influential works of literature and philosophy-introduced and edited by leading scholars. Norton Library editions prepare readers for their first encounter with the works that they'll re-read over a lifetime. * Inviting introductions highlight the work's significance and influence, providing the historical and literary context students need to dive in with confidence. * Endnotes and an easy-to-read design deliver an uninterrupted reading experience, encouraging students to read the text first and refer to endnotes for more information as needed. * An affordable price (most $10 or less) encourages students to buy the book and to come to class with the assigned edition. About the Editor: Caroline Levine is David and Kathleen Ryan Professor of the Humanities and Professor of English at Cornell University.
