Reconsidering Longfellow is the first collection of scholarly
essays in several decades devoted entirely to the work and
afterlife of the most popular and widely read writer in American
literature. The essays, written by a new generation of Longfellow
scholars, cover the entire range of Longfellow s work, from the
early poetry to the wildly successful epics of his middle period
(Evangeline, The Song of Hiawatha) to his Chaucerian collection of
stories published after the Civil War, Tales of a Wayside Inn.
Separate contributions discuss Longfellow s financial dealings, his
preoccupation with his children, and his interest in the visual
arts, as well as the tremendous role his poetry did and will once
again play in American literature classrooms in the U.S. All essays
were written specifically for the volume. Many of them rely on
unpublished archival sources from the Longfellow collections at the
Longfellow House-George Washington National Historic Site and at
Houghton Library in Cambridge, Massachusetts."
