John Keats - Longman Cultural Editions
Wolson

From Longman's Cultural Editions series, John Keats, edited by Susan J. Wolfson, has been organised to give a sense of the poet’s thinking by interspersing letters, poems, and publications of reviews and contemporary works.This is a new event in editions of Keats, arranged not in the usual way of separating these writings, but rather by positioning them alongside the author's poems in order of composition or appearance in print, for a more holistic understanding of Keats’s work.  Editor Susan Wolfson has taken care that all poems and letters have been freshly edited from their sources, and the manuscripts reflect scriptive elements such as cross-outs and underlines. This edition also includes some unusual contextual writings, including newspaper reviews of Keats's publicationsContextual materials include the newspaper articles that presented Keats's first publications and his poetry reviews, as well as the magazine article that conveyed the first publication of his strange and haunting ballad, La Belle Dame sans Mercy.Biographies, memoirs, and scholarly essays from the first century after Keats's death that brought new work to attention are also featured. Related works of contemporary poetry include samples of Chapman's Homer and Pope's Homer, and the sonnets by competing poets in the contests that produced some of Keats's finest work.Illustrations include photoplates of manuscripts that show Keats's original work.Glossaries of mythological and contemporary references demystify archaic allusions.Annotations identify the many new words or word-forms that Keats brought to the English language.  An Index of titles, first lines, and key topics references the ideas about poetry for which Keats has become famous.
