This authoritative edition was originally published in the
acclaimed Oxford Authors series under the general editorship of
Frank Kermode. It brings together all Hopkins's poetry and a
generous selection of his prose writings to give the essence of his
work and thinking. Gerard Manley Hopkins (1844-89) was one of the
most innovative of nineteenth-century poets. During his tragically
short life he strove to reconcile his religious and artistic
vocations, and this edition demonstrates the range of his
interests. It includes all his poetry, from best-known works such
as 'The Wreck of the Deutschland' and ''The Windhover' to
translations, foreign language poems, plays, and verse fragments,
and the recently discovered poem 'Consule Jones'. In addition there
are excerpts from Hopkins's journals, letters, and spiritual
writings. The poems are printed in chronological order to show
Hopkins's changing preoccupations, and all the texts have been
established from original manuscripts. ABOUT THE SERIES: For over
100 years Oxford World's Classics has made available the widest
range of literature from around the globe. Each affordable volume
reflects Oxford's commitment to scholarship, providing the most
accurate text plus a wealth of other valuable features, including
expert introductions by leading authorities, helpful notes to
clarify the text, up-to-date bibliographies for further study, and
much more.
