Az angol irodalom története. VII: Az 1930-as évektől napjainkig. Második rész [The history of English literature. VII: From the 1930s to the present. Part 2], edited by Tamás Bényei, Kijárat, Budapest, 2024.

Abstract

Volume 7 is a worthy closure of the mega project to provide an overview of the history of English literature(s) for a Hungarian audience. The last unit covers the time range from the 1930s to the present, divided into two parts (volumes 6 and 7, respectively). Spanning over 660 pages, excluding bibliography and index, volume 7 starts with the swinging sixties and ends with Brexit literature. The chapters mostly follow a chronological order, and the majority of them contain subchapters which makes navigating the book easier.
