The General Editor of the eighth edition of the Norton Anthology of English Literature is Stephen Greenblatt; do not combine this volume with prior editions showing M.H. Abrams as General Editor.

STOP! This is the 8th edition of volume E of The Norton Anthology of English Literature, The Victorian Age, edited by Stephen Greenblatt (although M. H. Abrams, founding editor emeritus, is sometimes given as the editor in catalog data).

Please do not combine with other volumes of The Norton Anthology of English Literature, or with earlier editions in which M. H. Abrams was not merely the emeritus founding editor but the editor.
