OverviewThis volume of the Synergy Literature series focuses mainly on contemporary literary and cultural works in English. Authors of this book bring new perspectives on a wide range of literary works, as well as significant social movements and works of popular culture, with a focus mostly but not solely on novels, plays, and poetry. The book consists of 10 chapters, each covering various historical periods, literary works, and themes. While reading this book, readers will encounter analyses of works in the fantasy genre or the best-selling science fiction of recent years, or they will see reflections on feminism from the past to the present. In this regard, this book will be an important sourcebook for a broad scientific readership of graduate students and academics, regardless of the genre or period of literature in which they specialize.
