The Works of Charlotte Smith, Part I cover

Reveals the extent to which Charlotte Turner Smith's work constitutes as significant an achievement as her poetry, representing the turbulent decade of the 1790s on its social and political, as well as literary, planes with an unparalleled richness of detail and an unblinkered vision.

'the annotations are clear and copious (including detailed accounts of how her translations differ from the originals) and the books are beautifully produced. Romanticists will be grateful. Summing Up: Essential' CHOICE 'With crisp introductions, bibliographies, facsimile title-pages, explanatory endnotes and textual notes, each volume reflects editorial care and intelligence. Curran's "General Introduction" is compelling and critically absorbing, expert about Smith's career, and wonderfully illuminating on the multiple and various strands of its endeavors, sources and resources. His team of internationally distinguished editors works to high standards, with considerable success.' Huntington Library Quarterly
