The Collected Works of John Ford
Volume IV
AvBrian Vickers
Inbunden, Engelska, 2023
3 858 kr
Skickas inom 7-10 vardagar
Volume IV of the Collected Works of John Ford is the first of two volumes in the series to contain his sole-authored plays. It contains three of his most celebrated plays: 'Tis Pity She's a Whore (1622), The Lovers' Melancholy (1628), and The Broken Heart (1629), as well as the less well-known The Queen (1629). The volume opens with a general introduction to Ford's work as a sole author by Sir Brian Vickers and each play is given a detailed introduction emphasizing Ford's linguistic creativity and his effective use of the indoor private theatres. Authoritative old-spelling texts, freshly edited from the original quartos with full textual collations, are accompanied by a full commentary on all aspects of the plays, from archaic or obsolete words to classical allusions and historical references to people, places, and social customs.
The Collected Works of Mary Sidney Herbert, Countess of Pembroke: Volume I: Poems, Translations, and Correspondence
AvMary Sidney Herbert,Margaret P. Hannaym. fl.

Skickas inom 5-8 vardagar
Mary Sidney Herbert, Countess of Pembroke, is the most important Elizabethan woman writer and patron outside the royal family. By astute use of the genres permitted to women, she supported the Protestant cause, introduced continental literary genres, expanded opportunities for later women writers, and influenced seventeenth-century lyric and drama by such writers as John Donne, George Herbert, Mary Wroth, and William Shakespeare. This scholarly edition in two volumes is the first to include all her extant works: Volume I prints her three original poems, the disputed `Dolefull Lay of Clorinda', her translations from Petrarch, Mornay, and Garnier, and all her known letters. Volume II contains her metrical paraphrases of Psalms 44-150. The edition also provides a biographical introduction, discussion of her sources and methods of composition, textual annotation, and a detailed commentary.
The Poems and Translations of Sir Richard Fanshawe: The Poems and Translations of Sir Richard Fanshawe Volume I
AvRichard Fanshawe,Peter Davidson
Inbunden, Engelska, 1997
3 785 kr
Skickas inom 3-6 vardagar
This is the first full collected edition of the works of the seventeenth-century poet and translator Sir Richard Fanshawe, an exceptionally gifted linguist, recognized in his won life-time as a fine Latinist and renowned for his verse translations from Latin, Italian, Spanish, and Portugese, as well as from English into Latin. The vitality of Fanshawe's translations evokes a sense of genuine passion felt by the translator and communicated through his re-working of the texts, in addition to providing more mechanical evidence of his linguistic and poetic competence. This volume contains a thorough commentary, containing a significant amount of new information and providing and acute and sympathetic critical assessment of Fanshawe's work.Much of the material in this edition appears in print for the first time and is base on a completely new corpus of authoritative printed material in Britain, America, and Portugal. In many cases, the text is drawn from printed texts marked up by Fanshawe or his immediate family, or from manuscripts originating close to the poet himself, thus representing his works in the form in which they were known in Fanshawe's family and immediate circle. Original spelling and punctuation are, similarly, closely adhered to throughout. Davidson also provides a full and detailed commentary on Fanshaw's less-familiar original poems and incorporates a chronology of Fanshawe's life and works, thus setting his translations in the context of the political realities and quotidian existence of seventeenth-century England.
George Gascoigne, A Hundreth Sundrie Flowres
AvGeorge Gascoigne,G. W. Pigman
Inbunden, Engelska, 2000
7 311 kr
Skickas inom 7-10 vardagar
This is the only edition of George Gascoigne's A Hundreth Sundrie Flowres to respect the integrity of the first edition, which he published as an anonymous anthology in 1573. Earlier editors either based their work on The Posies of George Gascoigne Esquire, self-censored and published in 1575, or omitted the two plays, Supposes and Jocasta. But, from a bibliographical point of view, the plays are an integral part of the first edition, and the work that suffers most from revision is Gascoigne's masterpiece, The Adventures of Master F.J. The critical apparatus of this edition allows the reader to reconstruct the changes Gascoigne made to The Posies, and all the works which appear there for the first time are included. Half of the works in this edition, including the plays and Gascoigne's longest poem, `The fruites of Warre', have never received any commentary before. The commentary closely studies Gascoigne's use of his sources, especially in his translations from the Italian, and situates his works in their literary and social milieux. It also includes all of the extensive marginal notes that Gabriel Harvey made in his copy of The Posies. The biographical introduction corrects a number of mistakes in Prouty's standard biography and, in particular, offers a fuller, more accurate account of Gascoigne's military service in the Netherlands.

Apologia Pro Vita Sua

AvJohn Henry Newman,Martin J. Svaglic
Inbunden, Engelska, 1967

Skickas inom 5-8 vardagar
Of the spiritual odysseys which dominate the literature of nineteenth-century England, Newman's Apologia Pro Vita Sua is universally acknowledged as one of the greatest and yet one of the most difficult. Newman wrote the Apologia in 1864, as a reply to Charles Kingsley's attack on his veracity and that of his fellow Roman Catholic clergy; the following year he revised it extensively and thereafter amended new impressions almost until his death in 1890. This fine edition, long unavailable, has been reissued for the centenary; it includes all the variants resulting from Newman's revisions, in both the printed texts and the surviving manuscripts.

The Works of George Farquhar: Volume I
AvGeorge Farquhar,Shirley Strum Kenny
Inbunden, Engelska, 1988

Skickas inom 7-10 vardagar
George Farquhar was the most popular, and perhaps the best playwright of his time. The Irish-born actor and military officer arrived in London before he was twenty, captivated audiences with his lively, good-natured comedy, philandered with the leading actresses and female playwrights, married a widow with children, and wrote, besides the eight plays, many poems, letters, prologues and epilogues, an epic, and a miscellany, before his untimely death in 1707, not yet thirty.Shirley Strum Kenny has provided the first scholarly edition of the works since Stonehill's in 1730, in a reliable old-spelling text. She has added to the canon materials not printed since the beginning of the eighteenth century, some of which have never before been identified as Farquhar's.Each play has an introduction describing its sources and composition, theatrical and publication history, influence, and textual problems. The introductions to the non-dramatic works contain similar information, and relate the works to the contemporary events which occasioned them. Questions of authorship for newly-identified works, and possible or doubtful attributions are carefully considered.
The Works of Thomas Southerne
Volume I

Skickas inom 7-10 vardagar
Dublin-born Thomas Southerne has long been admired as one of the most important dramatists of the Restoration. The lack of a modern edition, however, has prevented his plays from taking their place alongside those of his friends Congreve, Wycherley, and Etherege. The present edition brings together his ten plays and the small surviving body of non-dramatic writings. Texts are based on an exhaustive study of the earliest editions and include a record of his revisions for the 1713 edition of his works, and the variants between the censored and uncensored texts of his political tragedy The Spartan Dame . Although best known for his two tragedies, The Fatal Marriage and Oroonoko , based on stories by Aphra Behn, Southerne was the author of three outstanding comedies - Sir Anthony Love , The Wives' Excuse , and The Maid's Last Prayer - which, although enjoying mixed fortunes in their own time, have been praised in recent studies of Restoration drama for their wit, psychological realism, and adventurous stagecraft. The introduction contains the first biography of Southerne to be based on a comprehensive study of the surviving documentary records.Generous explanatory notes to the texts clarify the many contemporary allusions and relate Southerne's work to its sources and models. Students of theatre history, and of English literature of the Restoration should be specially interested by this book.

Skickas inom 7-10 vardagar
George Crabbe (1754-1832) was acclaimed by his contemporaries as a major poet. The leading reviewer of the day, Francis Jeffrey, paid tribute to his powerful originality. Byron pronounced him 'Though Nature's sternest Painter, yet the best'. Sir Walter Scott, and Jane Austen, who declared that she would have married him, were among his many admirers. In our own time both critics and poets have praised his penetrating insights into human motivation, his realism, and his unique use of landscape as a setting for his poems and verse tales; and he is well known as the author of Peter Grimes, on which Benjamin Britten based his opera. Yet there has not been a collected edition of his verse since A.W. Ward's, some eighty years ago.The present edition draws on much recently discovered manuscript material in this country and in the USA, including a finished manuscript, with proofs, of Tales of the Hall, and manuscripts of four unpublished tales and of a number of shorter poems. Close attention has been paid to the evolution of the text from the rough pencil drafts in Crabbe's notebooks to the final version on the printed page. An extensive Commentary relates both to the literary context and to Crabbe's many observations on the social scene of his day.
The Poetical Works of Gerard Manley Hopkins
AvGerard Manley Hopkins,Norman H. MacKenzie
Inbunden, Engelska, 1990

Skickas inom 5-8 vardagar
This long-awaited complete edition of the poetry offers serious students of Gerard Manley Hopkins far more guidance than has previously been available. The edition is scrupulously and fully annotated, with a commentary and introduction. The texts are arranged chronologically; rhythm is clarified where Hopkins's prosodic marks are eccentric; and thousands of words and phrases are annotated, many for the first time. The neglected early half of his poetic output, before the Wreck of the Deutschland, is given full attention.The substantial introduction gives the history of each album of poetic manuscripts and a critical analysis of Hopkins's prosodic signs and use of accidentals. Because of the ambiguities disclosed, the editor argues that a definitive edition is probably beyond reach, but the new light he throws on the poetry should prove a major stimulus to Hopkins criticism. The headnote to each poem sets out its intellectual or biographical background, and lists critical articles on it, particularly those published after the 1969-70 cut-off date of Dunne's Comprehensive Bibliography of Hopkins. The detailed commentary gives a wealth of illuminating quotations from Hopkins's letters, journals, and other writings, as well as directing the reader to further areas of research. Professor MacKenzie's intimate knowledge of the manuscripts results in separate descriptions of every draft, fair-copy, and significant transcript of each poem. The principal variants are noted, and there are cross-references to the editor's two-volume Poetic Facsimiles of the manuscripts.
