Works of different lengths and levels of difficulty are represented, as are narrative, descriptive and persuasive essays--and, new to this edition, lyric essays. For the new edition there are also considerably more short pieces than ever before; a number of op-ed pieces are included, as are pieces from blogs and from online news sources. The representation of academic writing from several disciplines has been increased--and in some cases the anthology also includes news reports presenting the results of academic research to a general audience. Also new to this edition are essays from a wide range of the most celebrated essayists of the modern era--from James Baldwin, Susan Sontag, Joan Didion, and Annie Dillard to Eula Biss and Ta-Nehisi Coates. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe anthology remains broad in its thematic coverage, but certain themes receive special emphasis--notably, issues of race, class, and culture in twenty-first century America. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFor the new edition the headnotes have been expanded, providing students with more information as to the context in which each piece was written. Questions and suggestions for discussion have been moved online to the instructor website. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLaura Buzzard\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eDon LePan\u003c\/strong\u003e are co-authors of \u003cem\u003eThe Broadview Pocket Glossary of Literary Terms\u003c\/em\u003e (2014) and of \u003cem\u003eHow to Be Good with Words\u003c\/em\u003e (forthcoming, 2017); \u003cstrong\u003eNora Ruddock\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eAlexandria Stuart\u003c\/strong\u003e are, respectively, Developmental Editor and Assistant Editor, at Broadview Press. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1080\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.2 x 8.9 x 6.6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e August 29, 2016\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42167460757639,"sku":"9781554813339","price":114.21,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0601\/2623\/2711\/files\/14ccd2d44016e29c9b0d2bb2ecb2dacd.webp?v=1733327812","url":"https:\/\/booksby.splitshops.com\/products\/the-broadview-anthology-of-expository-prose-third-edition-paperback","provider":"Books by splitShops","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
