AMERICAN LITERARY
CHARACTERS
The Student s Encyclopedia of American Literary Characters is a comprehensive four-
volume set designed to help students approach American literature in the most appealing
way
—
through the most memorable characters of the greatest works. Approximately
900
in-depth character studies, ranging from
1,000
to
1,400
words each, are organized alpha¬
betically by author and then by work.
Each entry features an analysis of the character, as well as a discussion of the characters
role in the work. Two to five questions accompany each entry and provide topics for
papers or classroom discussion. Many questions draw parallels to other works of literature,
encouraging students to make their own connections. This invaluable, clearly organized
reference also includes further reading lists and an appendix of specialized indexes.
Coverage includes
Captain Ahab from Moby-Dick
Frank Bascombe from Independence
Day
Daisy Buchanan from The Great Gatsby
Janie
Crawford from Their Eyes Were
Watching God

Mockingbird
Huckleberry Finn from Adventures of
Huckleberry Finn

the Younger family from A Raisin in
the Sun
and more
