Description

This is the first ever complete critical edition of the writings of Anne Finch, Countess of Winchilsea (1661–1720), including work printed in her lifetime and material left in manuscript form at her death.

Textual analysis, based on print and manuscript copies in repositories across the United Kingdom and United States, reveals her revision processes and uses of manuscript and print.

Extensive commentary clarifies her techniques, sources, contexts, and diction.

A detailed essay traces the history of her works' reception and transmission.

The result is a complete view of her achievements that will promote more accurate assessments of her contributions to literary and cultural shifts, including perspectives on literary value, women's equality, religion, and affairs of state.

Writer and critic of the Glorious Revolution, Finch imparts rare insights into this watershed of political and cultural values.

Her work represents a complex convergence of artistic innovation, political allegiance, and personal passion.
