Book Description
This critical edition of the poems of Anna Seward (1742-1809) re-establishes one of the most popular and prolific poets of the early Romantic period. Her work influenced Charllotte Smith and Mary Robinson and later both Wordsworth and Coleridge. Her reputation was so high that Sir Walter Scott edited the posthumous edition of her poems in 1810. Unlike Scott's, this edition reproduces the poems as they were first published in periodicals and collections during Seward's lifetime, allowing scholars to experience them as eighteenth century readers did. It also includes mire than 200 poems that were excluded from the Scott edition.

Book Description
This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1810 edition. Excerpt: ... EPISTLE HEV. DR WILLIAM BAGSHOT STEVEHS, Of HEi'TON, DERBYSHIRE, WRITTEN IN 1783. If yet, unbless'd with learning's guardian aids, I rov'd the labyrinths of Aonian shades, And in the gloomy and the silent hour Wove the dun foliage of their cypress bower, The oak-crown'd Chief, and laurel'd Warrior's tomb Solemn to strew;--and cropt their floral bloom For a fair votary's urn, my priz'd reward Lives in the smile of Repton's classic Bard. 1. 5.

Portal of the Strand; Faultier, of New Bond-street; and Kearsley, No. 46, Fleet-street. This work went through two editions, though it met the utmost injustice that dullness and spleen could produce, in one of the leading Reviewers. No compositions, especially those of so young a man, are without imperfections. The few defects of RetireMent were assiduously pointed out, and exaggerated, and many unexceptionable lines and expressions clumsily ridiculed; while the numerous passages of striking and nnborrowed beauty, were passed over in silence; but the...
