An oscillation criterion is established for a class of functional differential equations including the generalized Emden-Fowler equation

as a special case. The deviating arguments involved may be retarded or advanced or otherwise. The result extends and improves known fundamental oscillation criteria for superlinear differential equations with retarded arguments.
