- Synopsis
- The Norton Book of Nature Writing, College Edition offers, for the first time, a paperback edition of this ground-breaking anthology. In addition to its significantly expanded table of contents, the new version has been augmented by a Field Guide for teachers and students, written by Lilace Mellin Guignard, a writer and teacher at the Center for Environmental Literature of the University of Nevada at Reno. The Field Guide includes a thematic table of contents with useful groupings of the readings and a set of three study questions for each selection. These questions call attention to literary techniques and themes, suggest connections among various authors in the collection, and invite response to the personal or political challenges posed by particular selections. For students, these questions may offer a further context for their initial encounters with these readings and help to identify rich areas to explore further in their own writing. For teachers, they may serve as prompts for student journals or as topics for discussion in class.
