ISBN: 9780393090710 Format: Paperback Number Of Pages: 704 Published: 17 December 1979 Country of Publication: US Dimensions (cm): 21.1 x 13.2 x 2.4 Description: There are no fewer than seventeen manuscripts of The Prelude in the Wordsworth library at Grasmere.

The editors also provide a text of MS. JJ (Wordsworth's earliest drafts for parts of The Prelude) as well as transcriptions of other important passages in manuscript which Wordsworth failed to include in any fair copy of his poem. The texts are fully annotated, and the notes for all three versions of The Prelude are arranged so that each version may be read independently.
The editors provide a concise history of the texts and describe the principles by which each has been transcribed from the manuscripts.

A chronological table enables the reader to contextualise the biographical and historical allusions in the texts and footnotes. <...
