Gerard Manley Hopkins
This authoritative edition was originally published in the acclaimed Oxford Authors series under the general editorship of Frank Kermode. Gerard Manley Hopkins (1844-89) was one of the most innovative of nineteenth-century poets. It brings together all Hopkins's poetry and a generous selection of his prose writings to give the essence of his work and thinking.
It includes all his poetry, from best-known works such as 'The Wreck of the Deutschland' and "The Windhover' to translations, foreign language poems, plays, and verse fragments, and the recently discovered poem 'Consule Jones'. During his tragically short life he strove to reconcile his religious and artistic vocations, and this edition demonstrates the range of his interests. In addition there are excerpts from Hopkins's journals, letters, and spiritual writings.
The poems are printed in chronological order to show Hopkins's changing preoccupations, and all the texts have been established from original manuscripts.
