A New Season

S p r i n g 2 0 1 2

This season brings a number of Broadview’s most widely praised and most successful titles in new editions or versions. Pride of place must go to the Broadview Frankenstein—the first edition of which in 1992 established what has become the template for the entire Broadview Editions series, with the classic text accompanied not only by an informative introduction, chronology, and bibliography, but also by an extensive selection of background documents that provide a vivid sense of the work in its historical context.

That’s not the only successful title to appear in a new edition or new version this season. Others include The Canterbury Tales, The Broadview Anthology of Short Fiction, and “The Victorian Era” volume of The Broadview Anthology of British Literature, acclaimed as having set “the new standard” for anthologies of this sort. Highlights of the season’s philosophy list include concise editions of two of our most ambitious and successful titles in that discipline—First Philosophy and The Broadview Anthology of Social and Political Thought.

In any Broadview season there is also always a good deal that is entirely new for Broadview, and this one is no exception. Notable titles include a new translation of Sigmund Freud’s The Future of an Illusion; from our Freehand Books literary wing an extraordinary new novel of two women in South Sudan, While The Sun is Above Us; and in the Broadview Editions list a re-issue of Black Oxen, a remarkable novel from the 1920s about an older woman who manages to become young again.

Also new this season: over two hundred Broadview titles are being made available electronically through the Google eBookstore. This is not our first venture into the world of e-books (some Freehand titles are available through Kobo, the iBookstore, and Barnes and Noble, for example, and many Broadview titles are available in electronic form through the Symtext ‘liquid textbook’ system)—but it is by far the largest. It may not be possible for human beings to stay perpetually young and fresh—but we at Broadview are determined to prove that it is entirely possible for book publishers!

In this narrative of the gullible ship’s doctor Lemuel Gulliver and his extraordinary travels, Jonathan Swift takes readers through a series of apparently child-like fantasy worlds of tiny people and giants, fl oating islands and talking horses. But through this fantastic journey, he also gave to literature an enduring model of mankind’s follies, vulnerabilities, vanities, and self-destructiveness. Dangerously topical in its own time and much debated ever since, Gulliver’s Travels is among those works of English literature that entrap and challenge readers in every period.

Historical appendices provide a context for the novel’s literary models, scientifi c infl uences, and complex political and religious allusions.

Jonathan Swift (1667-1745) was an Anglo-Irish writer of poetry, prose, and political pamphlets and essays. He is known as one of the greatest satirists in the English language.

Allan Ingram is Professor of English at Northumbria University. His research focuses on eighteenth-century representations of insanity.

A groundbreaking edition of a classic, the Broadview Frankenstein has been updated to reflect current controversies about the novel’s composition.

Praise for the second edition:“Superb. The introduction and appendices are particularly valuable ... accessible

and illuminating.” – Bernard Hirsch, University of Kansas“Far better than any [other edition] on the market today.” – Craig Keating, Langara College

Mary Shelley’s deceptively simple story of Victor Frankenstein and the creature he brings to life, fi rst published in 1818, is now more widely read than any other work of the Romantic period. Tracing the troubled relationship between Frankenstein and his creation in a complex, multilayered narrative, the story retains its hold on the reader even as it spins off ideas in rich profusion.

New to this edition is a discussion of Percy Shelley’s role in contributing to the fi rst draft of the novel. Recent scholarship has clarifi ed the degree to which Percy Shelley edited, modifi ed, and added to Mary Shelley’s original text, and this edition’s note on the text discusses this scholarship, as well as the controversy over whether Percy Shelley should be considered a co-author of the work.

Mary Shelley (1797-1851) was an English fi ction writer, dramatist, and essayist. The daughter of prominent political philosophers Mary Wollstonecraft and William Godwin, she was married to the poet Percy Shelley.

In 1927 Sigmund Freud, the founder of psychoanalysis, declared that religion is a universal obsessional neurosis. The Future of an Illusion provoked immediate controversy and has continued to be an important work for anyone interested in the intersection of psychology, religion, and culture. Included in this volume is Oskar Pfi ster’s critical engagement with Freud’s views on religion. Pfi ster, a Swiss pastor and lay analyst, defends mature religion against Freud’s “scientism.”

Noted Freud scholar and editor Todd Dufresne provides a challenging cross-disciplinary introduction. All of Freud’s and Pfi ster’s texts have been beautifully updated in Gregory C. Richter’s masterful translations from the original German.

Sigmund Freud (1856-1939), an Austrian, was the founder of psychoanalysis. His theories about the workings of the unconscious mind remain widely infl uential.

Todd Dufresne is Professor of Philosophy and founding Director of the Advanced Institute for Globalization & Culture at Lakehead University. He has published six books on Freud, including the Broadview Edition of Beyond the Pleasure Principle. Gregory C. Richter is Professor of German and Linguistics at Truman State University.

A key work of Freud’s late period, The Future of an Illusion is for the first time paired with Oskar Pfister’s powerful response, “The Illusion of a Future” (1928).

This novel, a bestseller in the 1920s and the basis of a popular 1924 fi lm, brings together such unlikely topics as medical rejuvenation treatments, eugenics, American youth culture, and cross-generational relationships. The beautiful American widow of a Hungarian count, Mary Zattiany is fi fty-eight years old; after receiving experimental

“rejuvenation treatments” and returning to America, however, she is often mistaken for a woman in her twenties, and falls in love with a much younger man. Set in an era fi xated on youth, beauty, and pleasure, but focusing on the experiences of an aging woman, Black Oxen off ers a fresh perspective on the Jazz Age.

Black Oxen was written in a burst of mental energy after Gertrude Atherton herself received an experimental anti-aging treatment; the introduction and appendices to this edition explore the parallels and diff erences between Atherton and her protagonist, as well as providing selections from other contemporary writings on aging, science, and the role of women in the 1920s. Stills and posters from the 1924 fi lm adaptation are also included.

APPENDICES

“Britain’s greatest medieval poem by its greatest non-dramatic poet: this new edition will be attractive to students, scholars, and general readers alike. Facsimiles of individual leaves from that manuscript have been scattered throughout the volume to give us a real sense of what it would have been like to open The Canterbury Tales for the fi rst time in the years immediately following Chaucer’s death.” – Larry Scanlon, Rutgers University

The Broadview Canterbury Tales is a new edition of the complete tales in a text based on the famous Ellesmere Manuscript. Here one may read a Middle English text that is closer to what Chaucer’s scribe, Adam Pinkhurst, actually wrote than that in any other modern edition. Unlike most editions, which draw on a number of manuscripts in an eff ort to recapture Chaucer’s original intention, this edition preserves the text as it was found in one infl uential manuscript. Spellings have not been standardized, the order of the lines and passages has not been altered, the text has only been emended when absolutely necessary for sense, and the original marginal glosses are noted throughout.

The second edition includes a new glossary, a timeline of Chaucer’s life and times, and detailed headers showing the section and line numbers, making it easier to fi nd a specifi c section of the poem.

Geoff rey Chaucer (1343-1400) was an English poet, translator, bureaucrat, and diplomat.

Robert Boenig is Professor of English at Texas A&M University. Andrew Taylor is Associate Professor of English at the University of Ottawa.

A new glossary and helpful textual information make Chaucer’s masterpiece more accessible in this second edition.

APPENDICES

First performed by Shakespeare’s rivals in the 1590s, Christopher Marlowe’s The Jew of Malta was a trend-setting, innovative play whose dark comedy and fi nal tragic irony illuminate the darker regions of the Elizabethan cultural imagination. Although Jews were banished from England in 1291, the Jew in the form of Barabas, the play’s protagonist, returns on the stage to embody and to challenge the dramatic and cultural anti-semitic stereotypes out of which he is constructed. The result is a theatrically sophisticated but deeply unsettling play whose rich cultural signifi cance extends beyond the early modern period to the present day.

The introduction and historical documents in this edition provide a rich context for the world of the play’s composition and production, including materials on Jewishness and anti-Semitism, the political struggles over Malta, and Christopher Marlowe’s personal and political reputation.

Christopher Marlowe (1564-1593) was a British playwright and poet.

Set both in England and in America, Emma Corbett is the moving story of a family torn apart by the American revolutionary war. In this powerful novel in letters, both sides of the confl ict are fully represented—as are the miseries and terrible costs of war, and the question of how families and society itself can be rebuilt in the aftermath. Edward Corbett and Henry Hammond are brought up together and go on to marry each others’ sisters, but fi ght on opposite sides in the war. While Louisa, Edward’s sweetheart, stays in England, Emma Corbett follows Henry to Pennsylvania. Disguised as a man, she fi ghts and is captured with her ship, before fi nding Henry and saving his life. The direct emotional impact of the characters’ experiences of the war made Emma Corbett a bestseller on both sides of the Atlantic.

Appendices include contemporary reviews and historical documents on heroism, sensibility, and women and war. A series of personal letters between Pratt (writing as Courtney Melmoth) and Benjamin Franklin, for whom he worked in France, are also included.

Samuel Jackson Pratt (1749-1814) was an English poet, novelist, and playwright who often published under the pseudonym “Courtney Melmoth.”

“Writing was then the only alternative, and she wrote some rhapsodies descriptive of the state of her mind; but the events of her past life pressing on her, she resolved circumstantially to relate them....They might perhaps instruct her daughter, and shield her from the misery, the tyranny, her mother knew not how to avoid.”

– from The Wrongs of Woman

Mary Wollstonecraft wrote these two novellas at the beginning and end of her years of writing and political activism. Though written at diff erent times, they explore some of the same issues: crippling ideals of femininity celebrated in the cult of sensibility, unequal education, and domestic subjugation. Mary counters the contemporary trend of weak, emotional heroines with the story of an intelligent and creative young woman who educates herself through her close friendships with men and women. Darker and more overtly feminist, The Wrongs of Woman is set in an insane asylum, where an aristocratic young woman has been wrongly imprisoned by her husband.

By presenting the novellas alongside such texts as Wollstonecraft’s letters, her polemical and educational prose, similar works by other authors like feminists and political reformists, the literature of sentiment, and contemporary medical texts, this edition encourages an appreciation of the complexity and sophistication of Wollstonecraft’s writing goals as a radical feminist in the 1790s.

Mary Wollstonecraft (1759-1797) was an English political philosopher, novelist, and travel writer. Her Vindication of the Rights of Woman is considered a foundational text of modern feminism.

“Danielson ... has fashioned a powerful pedagogical tool that is a gift to any teacher of Milton, whatever the level of instruction.” – Stanley Fish, The New York Times

John Milton’s epic story of cosmic rebellion and battle has long been considered one of the greatest and most gripping narratives ever written in English. Its intensely poetic language, now-antiquated syntax and vocabulary, and dense allusions to mythical and Biblical fi gures, however, make it inaccessible to many modern readers. This is, as the critic Harold Bloom wrote in 2000, “a great sorrow, and a true cultural loss.” Dennis Danielson aims to free the poem from the constraints of its original language by providing a fl uid, readable rendition in contemporary prose alongside the original. The edition allows readers to experience the power of the original poem without barriers to understanding.

John Milton (1608-1674) was an English poet and political writer. Best known for Paradise Lost and other poems, he also published many infl uential tracts on politics and religion.

Dennis Danielson is Professor of English at the University of British Columbia. He is the editor of The Cambridge Companion to Milton and the author of Milton’s Good God: A Study in Literary Theodicy.

A major scholar provides a reinterpretation in modern English prose of Milton’s poetic masterpiece.

In Three Guineas, fi rst published in June 1938 (as the threat of war between Britain and Nazi Germany was looming larger day by day) Virginia Woolf set about answering three questions. How should war be prevented? Why does the government not support education for women? Why are women prevented from engaging in professional work? Many at the time saw the matter of how best to prevent war as entirely unconnected with “women’s issues;” Woolf linked together the answers, and connected them too with discussions of such matters as social class, in what has come to be acknowledged as a landmark both of feminist and of anti-war writing.

Included in the fi rst and other early editions—and integral to the work—was a series of fi ve photographs of men of high position wearing garments that mark their status (Woolf does not identify the individuals portrayed, but—as researchers have shown—they would have been readily identifi able to many readers at the time). Unlike most editions available today, this facsimile edition includes the illustrations as well as the text of the original.

Virginia Woolf (1882-1941) is now generally recognized as the author of two of the twentieth century’s most important novels, To the Lighthouse and Mrs. Dalloway. Her work also includes another landmark of twentieth-century literature, A Room of One’s Own.

Woolf’s groundbreaking essay is now presented as it was first published, with original photographic illustrations.

In sixty-one audacious poems, Jeanette Lynes re-imagines and reanimates the peripatetic art, life, and times of DustySpringfield. Alternating between playful irreverence and profound compassion, It’s Hard Being Queen paints a compul-sively readable portrait of an extraordinary life. Each page is infused with wit, drama, and, of course, music. Jeanette Lynesnot only steps into the icon’s shoes—she lives in her skin.

“Lynes is elegance in poetic lines. Read.”George Elliott Clarke, Halifax Sunday Herald

Jeanette Lynes has previously published three books of poetry including Left Fields, shortlisted for the Pat LowtherAward. She is currently co-editor of The Antigonish Review.

A prostitute takes shelter with a group of young anarchists. A sister goes missing, mailing a trail of encoded postcards fromdestinations around the globe. The seven stories and two novellas inMother Superior are a heady blend of misfits and moth-ers, of sisters and complex, mysterious others. Nawaz traces the scars left by family secrets and sings the complex, capti-vating language of lust and of love.

“Mother Superior is superb. Saleema Nawaz writes with grace and compassion about a sisterhood ofyoung women facing down their demons and developing faith in themselves.” Neil Smith, author of Bang Crunch

Saleema Nawaz’s stories have been published in literary magazines across Canada. The final novella inMother Superiorwon the inaugural Robert Kroetsch Award for best creative thesis at the University of Manitoba.

Each of the poetic, searingly honest personal essays in Pathologies dissects an aspect of Olding’s rich life experience—fromher troubled relationship with her father to her tricky dealings with her female peers; from her work as a high school coun-sellor and teacher to her persistent desire, despite struggles with infertility, to have children of her own. Olding bravely re-counts the adoption of her daughter, Maia, from an orphanage in China, and Maia’s difficult adaptation to the unfamiliarstate of being loved. Olding has taken the challenging, much-underused form of the literary essay and made it her own.

Susan Olding was recently named one of The New Quarterly’s “Most Loved Living Writers.” She’s been a finalist for aNational Magazine Award, two Western Magazine Awards, and a CBC Literary Award. Essays in Pathologies have wonboth the Prairie Fire and Event Non-fiction Contests as well as the Brenda Ueland Prize for Literary Non-fiction.

Absorbed in her own failings, Clara Purdy crashes her life into a sharp left turn, taking the family in the other car alongwith her. When the young mother proves to have late-stage cancer, Clara moves the three children and their terriblegrandmother into her own house. What do we owe in this life, and what do we deserve? This compassionate and fiercelyintelligent novel looks at life and death through grocery-store reading glasses: being good, being at fault, and findingsome balance on the precipice.

“Good to a Fault is a wise and searching novel about the fine line between being useful and being used.”Elizabeth Hay, Giller Prize-winning author of Late Nights on Air

Marina Endicott’s stories have been featured in The Journey Prize Anthology and serialized on CBC Radio’s Between theCovers. Her first book, Open Arms, was shortlisted for the Amazon/Books in Canada First Novel Award.

People Who Disappear is the debut collection of short fi ction from one of Canada’s brightest literary up-and-comers, Alex Leslie. In haunting, poetic prose, Leslie intelligently explores the anxieties associated with disappearance—of people, of love, of sanity—and the absences that remain.

Jittery, plaintive, and fresh, the poems in Ian Williams’s Personals are almost-love poems, voiced through a startling variety of speakers who continually rev themselves up to the challenge of connecting with others, often to no avail. Williams plays homage to traditional poetic forms while simultaneously showcasing his own inventiveness and linguistic dexterity in the creation of brand-new forms: poems that spin into indeterminacy, poems that don’t end. With a deft hand and playful ear, Williams invites the reader to stumble alongside his characters as they search, again and again, for intimacy and for each other.

Seen Reading is the exciting and unique debut collection of microfi ctions by Julie Wilson, Canada’s pre-eminent literary voyeur. Based on the award-winning and critically acclaimed online movement of the same name, Seen Reading catalogues over one hundred reader sightings—brief descriptions of individuals Wilson has spied reading books in public, on Toronto’s transit system. Wilson then imaginatively expands on each sighting, re-inventing the seen reader in a poetic piece of short fi ction. Organized into Toronto’s most traffi cked routes, Seen Reading is a beautifully inspired fi ctional map, joyfully charting an urban centre’s cultural commitment to books and literature in an era that continually predicts the demise of both.

While The Sun is Above Us takes readers deep into the extraordinary world of Sudan through the intertwined narratives of two women. In the midst of a bloody civil war, Adut is brutally captured and held as a slave for eight years. Sandra, fl eeing her life in Canada, travels to Sudan as an aid worker but soon fi nds herself unwittingly embroiled in a violent local confl ict. When chance brings Adut and Sandra together in a brief but profound moment, their lives change forever. In captivating prose, Melanie Schnell offers imaginative insight into the lives of innocents in a land at war, rendering horrifi c experiences with exquisite clarity. While The Sun is Above Us explores the immense power of the imagination, the human desire for connection, and the endurance of hope.

List of Key Terms Important to the Essay

CONTENTS

This is a book on how to read the essay, one that demonstrates how reading is inextricably tied to the art of writing. It aims to treat the essay with the close literary attention that has been given to other literary forms. Patricia Hampl explores F. Scott Fitzgerald’s famously confessional “The Crack-Up” from what was once his grandmother’s house in St. Paul, Minnesota; Sven Birkerts compares the power of Cynthia Ozick’s brief essay “A Drugstore in Winter” to “watching an enormous jet achieve lift-off from the shortest little patch of tarmac;” and Gayle Pemberton turns to Ralph Ellison for a “bracing blast of air” when the racism in contemporary American culture seems inescapable. At once personal appreciations and acute critical assessments, these pieces broaden our perspective on the essay as a literary art form.

Patricia Foster is the author of All the Lost Girls (2000) and Just beneath My Skin (2004; Publisher’s Weekly starred review). She has received a PEN/Jerard Fund Award for non-fi ction, a Florida Arts Council Award, and a Dean’s Scholar Award as well as seven Notable Essays in the Best American Essays series. She is a Professor in the MFA Program in Non-fi ction at the University of Iowa. Jeff Porter is an Associate Professor in the MFA Program in Non-fi ction at the University of Iowa.

CONTENTS

“The unwieldiness of short fi ction anthologies has impeded the serious study of this genre. Broadview Press off ers a remedy in this gem of a book….Selections range from indispensable classics to more contemporary works that prove equally indispensable. A celebration of the short story.”

– Susan Holbrook, University of Windsor

This selection of thirty-eight stories (from the nineteenth to the twenty-fi rst centuries) illustrates diverse narrative styles, from the austere to the avant-garde, as well as a broad spectrum of human experiences. The collection comprises recognized classics of the genre, and some very interesting, less often anthologized works. Stories are organized chronologically, lightly annotated, and prefaced by engaging short introductions. Also included is a glossary of basic critical terms.

The second edition has been updated to include more recent stories, a greater selection of international authors and works in translation, and an illustrated story (Shaun Tan’s “Grandpa’s Holiday”). In the cases of several luminaries of the genre, such as James Joyce, Edgar Allan Poe, and Alice Munro, multiple stories by the same author are included.

Julia Gaunce is the author of the novel Rocket Science (Pedlar Press, 2000). Suzette Mayr is the author of four novels, the most recent of which is Monoceros (Coach House Books, 2011). She teaches creative writing at the University of Calgary. Don LePan is the founder and President of Broadview Press and the author of Animals (Vehicule Press, 2009). Marjorie Mather and Bryanne Miller are Publisher and Assistant English Editor, respectively, at Broadview Press.

CONTENTS

“An exciting achievement … it sets a new standard by which all other anthologies of British literature will now have to be measured.” – Graham Hammill, SUNY Buffalo

“With the publication of The Broadview Anthology of British Literature, teachers and students in survey and upper-level undergraduate courses have a compelling alternative to the established anthologies from Norton and Longman. Having adopted the fi rst two volumes for an early period survey course last year, I had no hesitation in repeating the experience this year.…This is a very real intellectual, as well as pedagogical, achievement.” – Nicholas Watson, Harvard University

For the second edition of this volume a number of changes have been made. Elizabeth Gaskell’s “Our Society at Cranford” has been added, as has Anthony Trollope’s “A Turkish Bath.” Charles Dickens is now represented with a number of short selections.

The selection of poems by D.G. Rossetti has been expanded considerably (the entire 1870 House of Life sequence is included), as has that by Michael Field. A selection of poems by two key fi gures who also appear in the anthology’s twentieth-century volume (Thomas Hardy and W.B. Yeats) is also now included.

Several of the Contexts sections in the volume have been expanded—notably “The Place of Women in Society,” which now includes material concerning the Contagious Diseases Acts, and “Britain, Empire, and a Wider World,” which now includes a section on the Great Exhibition of 1851.

The volume will also include additional visual material—including four more pages of full color illustrations.

CONTENTS

Praise for the fi rst edition:

“The main diff erence between other anthologies and First Philosophy is Bailey’s supplementary material, which is excellent. The explicative material is likewise excellent: clear, highly relevant, useful, easily understood. The wonderful supplementary material makes this a very good text indeed.”

– Jeff Foss, University of Victoria

“First Philosophy has a good selection of articles for my purposes, and the accompanying introductory background material is absolutely brilliant.”

– Jillian Scott McIntosh, Simon Fraser University

Andrew Bailey’s highly regarded introductory anthology has been revised and updated in this new concise edition. Mindful of the intrinsic diffi culty of the material, the editors provide comprehensive introductions both to each topic and to each individual selection. By presenting a detailed discussion of the historical and intellectual background to each piece, the editors enable readers to approach the material without unnecessary barriers to understanding. New sections on philosophical puzzles and paradoxes and terminology have been added, and additional content is available on the book’s website.

Andrew Bailey is Associate Professor and Chair of the Department of Philosophy, University of Guelph. Robert M. Martin is Professor of Philosophy (retired), Dalhousie University.

The ideal introduction to the classic works and great schools of Eastern thought.

This book guides readers through ten classic works of Asian philosophy. Several major schools of Eastern thought are discussed, including Hinduism, Buddhism, Confucianism, Daoism/Taoism, and Chan/Zen. The author connects the ideas of these schools to those of Western philosophy, thereby making the material accessible to those who are unfamiliar with the cultures and intellectual traditions of Asia. A wide range of important topics are addressed: reality, time, self, knowledge, ethics, human nature, enlightenment, and death.

Aesthetic judgment is extended beyond art and nature into the everyday in The Extraordinary in the Ordinary.

This book explores the aesthetics of the objects and environments we encounter in daily life. Thomas Leddy stresses the close relationship between everyday aesthetics and the aesthetics of art, but places special emphasis on neglected aesthetic terms that have particular relevance to the everyday, such as ‘neat,’ ‘messy,’ ‘pretty,’ ‘lovely,’ ‘cute,’ and ‘pleasant.’ For both the artist and the amateur, everyday aesthetics is a matter of fi nding the extraordinary in the ordinary.

Thomas Leddy is Professor of Philosophy at San Jose State University.

Each chapter ends with review questions, discussion questions, and suggestions for group activities. Professionals will fi nd the book to be a helpful resource for professional development and sexual harassment training.
