Thomas De Quincey (1785-1859) is one of the greatest English prose
writers of the 19th century. Until now there has not been an
adequate edition of his works - a source of frustration to scholars
of De Quincey and to those researching Coleridge and Wordsworth. De
Quincey deeply influenced Edgar Allan Poe and number Dickens,
Proust and Virignia Woolf among his many fans. This edition will
include virtually all of De Quincey's published works plus the bulk
of his unpublished manuscripts. Highlights include: De Quincey on
murder, Autobiographical Sketches, his 1803 Diary, writings on
politics, economics, literary theory and his contributions to the
Edinburgh Saturday Post. In volume 2, the transcript to the
manuscript of Part 1 of Confessions of and English Opium Eater,
discovered in 1989, is published for the first time. It is fair to
say that every volume will contain material never previously
published.
