Encyclopedia of World Literature in the 20th Century (Revised Edition) (4 Volumes)

This highly praised encyclopedia is available now in an enlarged, totally revised edition, completely reset and truly international in scope. In some 1700 articles there is comprehensive coverage of Asian and African literatures in addition to those of Europe and the Americas. Much of the material can be found nowhere else except with great difficulty.

A guide to modern world authors provides a brief biographical profile, a list of each writer's works, and an assessment of their contribution to literature.
