Descripción

Aus der Bibliothek von Prof. Wolfgang Haase, langj�igem Herausgeber der ANRW und des International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT) / From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - sehr guter Zustand / very good condition - PREFACE -- The Poetry of Aphra Behn is the first of a multi-volume edition of the works of Aphra Behn. It draws on the pioneering scholarship of Montague Summers whose edition of Behn's writings appeared in 1915 when her reputation hardly warranted it. Summers' textual decisions and omissions may be faulted but it is difficult to match the literary and anecdotal Knowledge of the Restoration he reveals in his attributions and endnotes. The present edition responds to a new attention from scholars and other readers to the work of early women writers, since Behn's professional life and achievement must give her a prominent place in anv history of female writing. It also responds to an interest in the literary history of English in general, now in the process of revaluation; m this too Behn, with her generic breadth and innovation, must be a significant figure. I have intended to provide texts and variants as accurate as possible so as to facilitate the scholarly process of literary and cultural evaluation and reveal the extent and richness of Behn's literary accomplishments. In addition I hope that the completed edition will be a spur to biographical research and perhaps some restraint on biographical speculation. Because I have aimed to provide a tool for critics and scholars, the introductory material is less literary and evaluative than historical and textual, presenting a summary of the sparse documentaron of Behn's life and publications.
