The study-aids available in England and America, among other places, form the basis of The Atlantic Critical Studies which is primarily meant to cater to the needs of the students of English Literature in Indian universities. The books under this series fill the gap between the requirements and availability; and help the students by providing them quality material pertinent to their academic pursuits. This series covers authors and works that are widely prescribed in Indian universities. The books in this series discuss all the major aspects of the works, besides providing enough information on the authors and the period in which they wrote. This makes each book in the series self-sufficient and of great benefit to the students. The scholarly authors who have prepared the books in the series have used authentic sources and taken special care to combine lucidity and profundity in their treatment of the texts. The References in each chapter and the Select Bibliography at the end of the book are meant to help the students in making further study in specific areas if they want to. The books under The Atlantic Critical Studies will also help researchers besides students and teachers of English Literature.
