Volume X contains three of Dryden's Plays, along with accompanying scholarly appartus: The Tempest, Tyrannick Love, and An Evening's Love.

For the first time since 1695, a complete text of De Arte Graphica as Dryden himself wrote it is available to readers. In all, Volume XX presents six pieces written during Dryden's final decade, each of them either requested by a friend or commissioned by a publisher. Two are translations, three introduce translations made by others, and the sixth introduces an original work by one of Dryden's friends. The most recent version of De Arte Graphica, Saintsbury's late nineteenth-century reissue of Scott's edition, based the text of the translated matter on an edition that was heavily revised by someone other than Dryden. In fact, only one of the pieces offered here, the brief Character of Saint-Evremond, has appeared complete in a twentieth-century edition. The commentary in this volume supplies biographical and bibliographical contexts for these pieces and draws attention to the views on history and historians, poetry and painting, Virgil and translation, which Dryden expresses in them. Many other volumes of prose, poetry, and plays are available in the California Edition of The Works of John Dryden.

Concordance to the Poetry of Thomas Traherne offers an essential, systematic tool for scholars of seventeenth-century literature and poetry, particularly those exploring Traherne''s unique spiritual and philosophical verse. Drawing from H.M. Margoliouth''s definitive 1958 edition, this concordance meticulously catalogs each word and line from Traherne''s complete poetic works, providing a valuable resource for textual analysis, interpretation, and comparative study. By indexing Traherne''s poetry according to individual manuscripts, published books, and marginalia, it brings clarity to the complexities of his textual variations and orthographic idiosyncrasies. The concordance includes only the authoritative texts from the Dobell Folio, eschewing Philip Traherne''s later revisions, and focuses on Traherne''s intended compositions. Concordance entries facilitate cross-referencing within Traherne''s poetic canon, capturing his language''s nuances and revealing thematic connections, such as his profound engagement with concepts of innocence, divinity, and the natural world. Scholars will find the inclusion of rare words, specialized spellings, and titles—annotated for source consistency—a critical aid in interpreting Traherne''s linguistic style and theological insights.  This title was originally published in 1974.

The index words of the concordance reflect the spelling anomalies of Margoliouth's edition of The Poems and Letters of Andrew Marvell, and therefore many cross-references are given. Below each index word, context lines are printed. Although context lines are not given for relatively insignificant words (""of,"" ""for,"" etc.), frequency and relative frequency numbers are indicated. The concordance will facilitate further study of Marvell's poems.Originally published in 1974.A UNC Press Enduring Edition -- UNC Press Enduring Editions use the latest in digital technology to make available again books from our distinguished backlist that were previously out of print.
