Hardcover. Condizione: New. Condizione sovraccoperta: New. 1st Edition. NEW: First Edition hardcover (Orig. 1990) First Printing * 5.50" x 8.75" x 1.36", 0.76 kg, xxxvi+667 (704) pp * ABOUT THE BOOK: This volume contains almost all of Keats's non-dramatic poetry, including "Endymion" in its entirety, & a substantial selection of his letters. Many of the poems, including humorous & political pieces, were not published during his lifetime & never prepared for press. This edition is unique in presenting these poems as Keats left them, & not in the more heavily punctuated forms that editors have favored in the interest of homogeneity. In so doing, & in organizing the material in order of its composition, Elizabeth Cook provides an insight into Keats's creative process which is further enriched b the inclusion of almost one-third of the surviving letters. These are among the most remarkable ever written. They are invaluable as records of Keats's life & for the light they shed on his poems. In addition Keats is here represented through his other prose writings: as a public reviewer of the contemporary stage & as a private reader w/ his annotations of Shakespeare & Milton. * ABOUT THE SERIES: The "OXFORD AUTHROS" is a series of authoritative editions of the major English writers for the student & general reader. Drawing on the best texts available, ea. volume contains a generous selection form the writings--poetry & prose, including letters--to give the essence of a writer's work & thinking. Where appropriate, texts have been tactfully modernized & all are complemented by essential Notes, an Introduction, Chronology, & suggestions for Further Reading.
