Mary Blachford Tighe was born in Dublin in 1772 and became a
poet by the age of seventeen. Her enormously popular 1805 epic poem
Psyche; or, The Legend of Love made her a fixture of English
literary history for much of the nineteenth century. For much of
the twentieth century, however, Tighe was better known for her
influence on Keats's poetry than the considerable merits of her own
work. The Collected Poems and Journals of Mary Tighe restores Tighe
to the general canon of English literature of the period. With over
eighty-five poems, including the complete Psyche, and extracts from
several journals, both by and about Tighe, Harriet Kramer Linkin's
annotated edition is the most complete collection of Mary Tighe's
work to be published in one volume. Harriet Kramer Linkin,
professor of English at New Mexico State University, is the
coeditor of Romanticism and Women Poets: Opening the Doors of
Reception.

lay undressed by art, But of the mossy turf spontaneous made; Here
the young branches shot their arms athwart, And wove the bower so
thick in every part, That the fierce beams of Phoebus glancing
strong .
