The Gale Literature database aggregates several of Gale's other literary databases together in one interface, making it easier to search for literary information regarding authors and their works. Included in this database you will find biographies, reviews, criticisms, work overviews, primary sources, and multimedia. With Gale Literature you can go beyond your basic keyword search using the People Search and Works Search. These options allow you to find only results that are actually about your author or the title of work you're specifically looking for.
