Eight thematic chapters follow, with a balance of new and traditional voices, including less frequently anthologized selections from canonical writers as well as many works by women, minorities, and writers from other countries. A final chapter presents three poets for in-depth study: Emily Dickinson, Robert Frost, and Gwendolyn Brooks.Stanford, Judith is the author of 'Responding to Literature Stories, Poems, Plays, and Essays', published 2002 under ISBN 9780767422789 and ISBN 0767422783.
