This is the definitive textual analysis of all of Hardy's collected
short stories, tracing the development of each from manuscript,
through newspaper serial versions, galley proofs and revises to
collected editions in volume form. It is no surprise to discover
that Hardy's capacity for inveterate revision is manifested in his
tales as it was in his novels. Even those stories for which he
professed little regard were meticulously and continuously revised,
in some cases more than thirty years after their first publication.
The alterations extend to the most minute details of plot,
landscape, characterisation and style, as well as the restoration
of bowdlerised passages which had been demanded by serial
magazines. This study will play a major role in elevating the
importance of this genre in Hardy's prolific output and will
illuminate his textual practices - an area of considerable and
growing interest to a large number of scholars and students.
