Literature...

"Literature—the most seductive, the most deceiving, the most dangerous of professions."

--Viscount Morely John, (1838 - 1923)

 

Recommended Resources

  • MLA Bibliography  
      
    The definitive guide to literary criticism. Articles, books, and chapters in books. From 1920's to the present. Updated 10 times per year. Provides some links to full text articles.
  • JSTOR  
      
    Go to the advanced search and check "language & literature" from the search screen. Remember, JSTOR only offers older articles from a limited, but quality, list of journals.
  • Periodicals Archive Online  
    Like JSTOR, this one only has older articles but contains some valuable stuff.
  • Literature Resource Center  
      
    Be careful with this one. It provides online access to canned criticism -- mainly excerpts from actual journal articles and books. Many profs do not allow you to cite this directly but it can lead you to the real stuff.
  • Academic Search Premier  
      
    The old stand by. Be sure to check the box for "Scholarly 'peer reviewed' Journals" to ensure that you get high quality articles.
