The Poems of Gerard Manley HopkinsOxford U.P., 1967 - 362 pages This Fourth Edition of Hopkins's poems, first published in 1967 and now reprinted with corrections, brings together all the known poems and fragments, including the early verse first published in the poet's "Journals and Papers" (1959), and the remainder of his Latin verse, with translations into English of all the Latin poems which are fully original compositions. The edition retains the most important features of the First Edition of 1918, as edited by Robert Bridges, but a number of more authentic readings have been established by checking the poems against the MS. sources, and the poems have been arranged in a more strictly chronological order. The Notes include a selection of the marks used by the poet as guides to rhythm and expression. -- From publisher's description. |
