The information is presented in an easy-to-use form, and includes dates of reading and full discussions of evidence. It draws on analyses of Wordsworth's manuscripts contained in current and forthcoming scholarly editions of his works, and incorporates hitherto unpublished research into the poet's intellectual development, including a thorough survey of manuscript materials. Together with Duncan Wu's companion-volume, Wordsworth's Reading 1770–1799, this is a most complete study of Wordsworth's reading, and it will be an essential reference tool for all scholars and students of his work.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003ePreface\u003cbr\u003e Acknowledgements\u003cbr\u003e List of abbreviations\u003cbr\u003e Dates of readings\u003cbr\u003e A note on texts\u003cbr\u003e Wordsworth's reading 1800–15\u003cbr\u003e Appendix I: Wordsworth's reading 1770–99\u003cbr\u003e Appendix II: Wordsworth's reading 1800–15: some queries\u003cbr\u003e Appendix III: the Longman accounts\u003cbr\u003e Appendix IV: libraries used by Wordsworth\u003cbr\u003e Appendix V: fugitive texts read by Wordsworth, 1800–15\u003cbr\u003e Appendix VI: Tale Imitated from Gower: MS text\u003cbr\u003e Bibliography\u003cbr\u003e Index.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Literary studies: poetry \u0026amp; poets [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Literary studies: poetry \u0026amp; poets\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Literary%20studies:%20poetry%20\u0026amp;%20poets%20%5BDSC%5D%22\"\u003eDSC\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":46006245064984,"sku":"9780521037419","price":37.65,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/products\/9780521037419i_58f155e1-08bd-41b2-8416-21244881690f.jpg?v=1694968406","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/wordsworths-reading-1800-1815-paperback-9780521037419","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
