It contains some of the greatest stories he ever wrote: 'Odour of Chrysanthemums', 'Daughters of the Vicar', 'The Prussian Officer', and 'The White Stocking', with settings ranging from the mining community of Eastwood to Germany before the First World War. The text of this new edition is based on Lawrence's manuscripts, typescripts and corrected proofs, and is the first to remove the corruptions introduced by copyists, typists and printers. The introduction sets out the history of each story and of the collection itself. There is a textual apparatus recording variant readings and full notes explain historical references and other allusions, dialect forms and foreign words. Two important appendixes print the earliest surviving fragment of 'Odour of Chrysanthemums' and the 1911 version of 'Daughters of the Vicar'.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eGeneral editor's preface\u003cbr\u003e Acknowledgements\u003cbr\u003e Chronology\u003cbr\u003e Cue-titles\u003cbr\u003e Introduction\u003cbr\u003e The Prussian Officer and Other Stories\u003cbr\u003e Appendix I\u003cbr\u003e Appendix II\u003cbr\u003e Explanatory notes\u003cbr\u003e Textual apparatus.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Literary studies: fiction, novelists \u0026amp; prose writers [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Literary studies: fiction, novelists \u0026amp; prose writers\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Literary%20studies:%20fiction,%20novelists%20\u0026amp;%20prose%20writers%20%5BDSK%5D%22\"\u003eDSK\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Cambridge University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46005559492888,"sku":"9780521289856","price":39.38,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/products\/9780521289856i_56b7eca6-b593-41d6-b8a7-c746d31bd945.jpg?v=1691374619","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/the-prussian-officer-and-other-stories-paperback-9780521289856","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
