ix The Historical Explorations of Literature series is designed to help students understand key works of literature from different periods, regions, and tra- ditions. It places these works in the context of history, society, and culture through historical essays, literary analysis, chronologies, primary source documents, and suggested readings. Each volume in the series covers four or five canonical works related to a particular area of literature—significant literary productions of the Jazz Age or the Harlem Renaissance, for exam- ple. For each book covered, students will find a brief synopsis of the work separate essays on the work’s historical background and the author’s bio- graphical background an essay on “Why We Read This Work,” summariz- ing the work’s enduring value and significance and a section of “Historical Explorations,” including a selection of related primary documents.
