In recent years, under pressure from New Historicism and
developments in the formal study of biography, scholars have become
increasingly conscious of how deliberately fashioned were the
images of Shelley, Byron and Wordsworth. In Byron's case, this was
often with his consent or collusion; in Shelley's case, it was the
active efforts of his widow and friends who struggled to construct
a particular picture of both man and poet. With Wordsworth the
picture is less clear, since the kind of scrutiny that his two
counterparts have recently received has rarely extended to him. The
memoirs in this collection are written by those who had personal
knowledge of Shelley, Byron and Wordsworth, or who claimed to be
recording the accounts of those who had such knowledge. Each volume
in this set contains the original memoirs in facsimile together
with introductions and headnotes. The headnotes set the relevant
context for each document, cross-referencing controversial
passages.
