The Variorum Edition of the Poetry of John Donne, Volume 7, Part 1: The Holy SonnetsJohn Donne, Gary A. Stringer, Paul A. Parrish Praise for previous volumes: This is the 4th volume of The Variorum Edition of the Poetry of John Donne to appear. This volume presents a newly edited critical text of the Holy Sonnets and a comprehensive digest of the critical-scholarly commentary on them from Donne's time through 1995. The editors identify and print both an earlier and a revised authorial sequence of sonnets, as well as presenting the scribal collection -- which contains unique authorial versions of several of the sonnets -- inscribed by Donne's friend Rowland Woodward in the Westmoreland manuscript. |
