Longman Annotated English Poets
1 total work
This series aims to provide students, lecturers and the general reader with complete and fully annotated editions of the major English poets. The result of recent scholarship and criticism are embodied in each volume. The poems are arranged in the chronological order of their composition, and each has a headnote on its general significance, footnotes elucidating its local obscurities and a discussion of its meaning and occasion. This volume aims to present all Blake's verse, including scattered fragments and epigrams and also to provide as much annotation as is necessary to make the poetry accessible to the reader.
