Roe Nicholas: John Keats and the Perils
of Posterity

John Keats and the Perils of Posterity

The Cambridge Edition of the Complete Fiction of Henry James

This is the first scholarly edition of an important group of critical writings by Henry James, the Prefaces to his New York Edition (1907-9). It will be of value to James scholars and to scholars and advanced students of 19th- and 20th-century British and American literature and book history.

The Cambridge Edition of the Complete Fiction of Henry James provides, for the first time, a scholarly edition of a major writer whose work continues to be read, quoted, adapted and studied. James wrote the eighteen Prefaces included in this volume to accompany the revised, selective New York Edition of his novels and tales (1907–9). They are unique and various writings: at once a digest of James's critical principles, an unsystematic treatise on fiction theory, an account of his rereading and revision of his own work, an oblique autobiography of the writing life and a public performance of authorial identity. This is the first scholarly edition of the Prefaces, and includes a detailed contextual introduction, a full textual history and extensive explanatory notes. It will be of value to researchers, scholars and advanced students of Henry James, and of 19th- and 20th-century British and American literature and book history.

"City of Beginnings is an exploration of modernism in Arabic poetry, a movement that emerged in Beirut during the 1950s and became the most influential and controversial Arabic literary development of the twentieth century. Robyn Creswell introduces English-language readers to a poetic movement that will be uncannily familiar--and unsettlingly strange. He also provides an intellectual history of Lebanon during the early Cold War, when Beirut became both a battleground for rival ideologies and the most vital artistic site in the Middle East. Arabic modernism was centered on the legendary magazine Shi'r ("Poetry"), which sought to put Arabic verse on "the map of world literature." The Beiruti poets--Adonis, Yusuf al-Khal, and Unsi al-Hajj chief among them--translated modernism into Arabic, redefining the very idea of poetry in that literary tradition. City of Beginnings includes analyses of the Arab modernists' creative encounters with Ezra Pound, Saint-John Perse, and Antonin Artaud, as well as their adaptations of classical literary forms. The book also reveals how the modernists translated concepts of liberal individualism, autonomy, and political freedom into a radical poetics that has shaped Arabic literary and intellectual debate to this day"--Publisher's description.

City of Beginnings

This first scholarly edition of Washington Square, one of Henry James' most iconic works, presents a rare instance of an illustrated full-length text by James. Leading scholars undertake extensive annotation and contextualisation, provide a full introduction, and present a complete textual history, comparing the novel's serial and book publications.

The Cambridge Edition of the Complete Fiction of Henry James provides, for the first time, a scholarly edition of a major writer whose work continues to be read, quoted, adapted and studied. Published in two volumes in 1880, Washington Square dramatises the plight of Catherine Sloper, a rich heiress, whose father, a successful doctor, identifies her one suitor, Morris Townsend, as a fortune-hunter. The novel thus draws on the sentimental tradition, which it develops with subtle, sympathetic irony, in a realist direction. This edition is the first to provide a full account of the context in which the book was composed and received, and to include the original illustrations by Punch-cartoonist George Du Maurier. Extensive explanatory notes enable modern readers to understand its nuanced historical, cultural and literary references, and its complex textual history.

Studies in Publishing History: Manuscript, Print, Digital

Maura Ives's publishing history of "Goblin Market" maps its appearance in collected editions and in standalone volumes in Britain and the United States. Topics include the poem's composition, production, and marketing; contemporary reception; fine press, miniature, and mass market editions, including versions for children; and musical settings and adaptations. The volume concludes with an annotated list of archival sources and published versions of "Goblin Market," followed by an extensive bibliography.

As the lead poem in Christina Rossetti's first collection, Goblin Market and Other Poems, "Goblin Market" stands both historically and literally as the gateway to Rossetti's works. Despite its importance in the Rossetti canon, the publishing history of Rossetti's famous poem remains incomplete. Maura Ives offers the first extended treatment of this neglected topic, mapping "Goblin Market"'s publication history in collected editions and in standalone volumes in Britain and the United States. Topics covered include the poem's composition, production, and marketing; contemporary reception; fine press, miniature, and mass market editions, including versions for children; and musical settings and adaptations. The volume concludes with an annotated list of archival sources and published versions of "Goblin Market," followed by an extensive bibliography.  Memorable not only for its vivid imagery and its disconcerting combination of sensuality and Christian symbolism, the absorption of "Goblin Market" into popular culture is readily evident to this day, with Rossetti's poem serving as the title for a folk-rock duo, restaurants in Manhattan and Florida, and a number of books by other authors. Ives's publishing history of "Goblin Market" sheds light on the longstanding critical and commercial appeal of this fascinating Victorian poem and on book publishing from the Victorian period to the present.

Joelle Taylor has a Midas touch with words' Diana Souhami A Cosmo best books to look forward to in 2024 pick 'A glorious jewel of a novel' Sophie Ward 'Exhilarating, profoundly beautiful and exquisitely written' Salena Godden 'A mesmerising debut from one of the most talented literary stylists writing today' The Bookseller 'Hugely imaginative' Marie Claire (Best New Books, 2024) 'It's hard to think of many books more restlessly inventive' Guardian (Book of the Day) --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The tattoo was a reclamation, a flag we mounted in the centre of our own landscape. A woman walks into a tattoo parlour. But this is no ordinary woman, and this is Hackney in 2233. Jones' body is covered in tattoos but she wants to add one final inking to her gallery - a thin line of ink mixed with blood that connects her body art together, creating a unique map. As the two artists set to work, Jones tells them the story behind each tattoo. As Jones is no ordinary woman, these are no ordinary stories: each one represents a doorway to a life Jones fell into, a 'remembering'. Some of these lives were in the past, others in the future, some are sideways, but each of them connects Jones to the two tattoo artists in some way, though they are unaware of it. We visit the dystopian cities of the Quiet Men, the coal mines of 19th century Lancashire, join a gang of vigilante sex workers, enter the world of an INCEL murderer, haunt the old Maryville gay bar, and uncover plans to genetically modify female children. Each of the stories brings us closer to Jones' truth, and how her life is intricately interwoven with that of the women tattooing her body. Set across geographies and timespans, The Night Alphabet is a dazzlingly bold and original work, a deep investigation into human nature and violence against women.

Composed of interconnecting stories, The Night Alphabet is a mesmerising debut from one of the most talented literary stylists writing today.

The first critical edition of Henry James's The Sacred Fount, featuring a full critical apparatus including introduction, notes, glossary, textual variants and bibliography. The volume will be of interest to researchers, scholars and students of Henry James, and of nineteenth- and twentieth-century British and American fiction and literature.

The Cambridge Edition of the Complete Fiction of Henry James provides, for the first time, a scholarly edition of a major writer whose work continues to be read, quoted, adapted and studied. One of James's strangest works, The Sacred Fount, explores ideas of sexual desire and power in an English country house setting. The novel aroused considerable critical bewilderment and hostility on its original publication in 1901 but was retrieved by a subsequent generation of critics who found its ambiguity and stylistic elaboration an instance of James's 'mastery' and an early example of literary modernism. This is the first critical edition of James' landmark text and is supported by a full critical apparatus including introduction, notes, glossary, textual variants and bibliography. The volume will be of interest to researchers, scholars and advanced students of Henry James, and of nineteenth- and twentieth-century British and American fiction and literature.

The Sacred Fount

Cambridge Studies in Romanticism

Bringing together ideas about poetry, philosophy, medicine, and politics to investigate the relationship between bodies and voices in Romantic-era British literature, Alice Rhodes reveals how Erasumus Darwin, John Thelwall, and Percy Bysshe Shelley came to present the voice as a form of physical, autonomous, and effective political action.

Physiological, political, and poetic studies of the relationship between the human body and voice saw increased attention and took on new significance in British literature of the politically turbulent period between the 1770s and the 1820s. Focusing on Erasmus Darwin, John Thelwall, and Percy Bysshe Shelley, three writers whose works draw together the fields of science, politics, language, and literature, and who were subject to charges of political radicalism and materialist philosophy, Alice Rhodes draws attention to a developing theory of spoken and poetic utterance which, for its subscribers, suggested a fundamental, material, and reciprocal connection between the speaking body and the physical, social, and political worlds around it. By investigating the Romantic-era fascination with the mechanics and physiology of speech production, she explores how Darwin, Thelwall, and Shelley came to present the voice as a form of physical, autonomous, and effective political action.

British Romanticism and the Matter of Voice

In works such as The Mask of Anarchy? and "A Philosophical View of Reform,? Matthew C. Borushko argues, Percy Bysshe Shelley intervenes in the reformist crisis of agency occasioned by the dramatic historical and political violence that characterized Britain during the Romantic period. He shows how Shelley's body or work reconceived the possibility of the political possibilities of art and explores the implications of Shelley's nonviolence for later artists and reformers such as George Bernard Shaw to Mohandas K. Gandhi.

From the French Revolution, Reign of Terror, and Napoleonic Wars abroad to the dramatic social changes wrought by industrialization and political agitation at home, the Romantic age in Britain was characterized by dramatic historical and political violence. As a result, the reform movement of the early nineteenth century faced a crisis of agency, in the wake of both Waterloo and Peterloo, that centered on the role of violence in the hope for social progress. In poems such as The Mask of Anarchy and political writings such as "A Philosophical View of Reform," Matthew C. Borushko argues, Percy Bysshe Shelley intervenes in this reformist crisis of agency with a highly original political program of nonviolence rooted in the redefining of aesthetics as the primary site for a critique of the violence of post-revolutionary Europe. Grounded in the dynamic historical contexts in which Shelley wrote and informed by twentieth-century theory, Shelley’s Romantic Nonviolence shows how Shelley’s body of work reconceived the possibility of the political possibilities of art and explores the implications of Shelley's nonviolence for later artists and reformers such as George Bernard Shaw to Mohandas K. Gandhi.

Shelley's Romantic Nonviolence

Henry James's last completed novel, The Outcry (1911), was originally conceived as a play, then adapted into novel form by James with great success. This first authoritative edition provides extensive annotations, a detailed textual history of the work, and a full introduction exploring the novel's literary, cultural and historical contexts.

The Cambridge Edition of the Complete Fiction of Henry James provides, for the first time, a scholarly edition of a major writer whose work continues to be read, quoted, adapted and studied. The Outcry, James's last completed novel, is an ironic depiction of the contemporary art market in which wealthy Americans are plundering British-owned treasures. James adapted the work, originally written as a play, into novel form with great success. This edition, based on the work's first book appearance in 1911, reconstructs the novel's literary, cultural and historical contexts, includes extensive annotation, and gives a detailed textual history. In exploring the process of adaptation it allows particular insight into James's skills as a novelist. The volume will be of interest to James scholars, art and theatre historians and students of nineteenth- and twentieth-century Anglo-American literature, while also contributing to the developing field of adaptation studies.
