Synopsis

Prentice Hall Literature: Timeless Voices, Timeless Themes — The British Tradition is the twelfth-grade volume of Pearson's Prentice Hall Literature program, a secondary-school textbook anthology built around readings from the British literary tradition. Rather than telling a single story, it is a classroom resource: literary selections are organized with accompanying study questions, a glossary, and teaching apparatus meant to build students' reading and analytical skills over a school year.

It was developed by a team credited across its editions — Kate Kinsella, Kevin Feldman, Colleen Shea-Stump Ph.D., Joyce Armstrong Carroll, and Edward E. Wilson — as part of Prentice Hall's wider grade 6-12 literature series, of which this British Tradition volume is the senior-year installment (alongside a companion World Masterpieces volume). It was issued in several regional student editions, including California, Florida, and Georgia printings, published between 2002 and 2007.

Because it is a teaching anthology rather than a single authored work, its content spans many centuries and authors of British literature rather than one narrative, and no single description can stand in for its table of contents.
