Gale Literature: Twayne's Author Series

For more than half a century, Twayne has offered concise critical introductions to the lives and works of writers, to the history and influence of literary movements, and to the development of literary traditions. Twayne’s Authors Series is devoted to literary critical interpretation and discussion written for readers ranging from high school students to scholars. Each entry explores criticism with new insights and original points of view. Each collection was carefully coordinated with input from librarians and educators to include authors universally studied in high schools and colleges. As such, Twayne’s Authors Series is the ideal starting point for research papers on works and figures, special projects, and presentations. It is appropriate for both upper-level high school students as well as undergraduates.
