William Cowper : The Task and Selected Other Poems, Paperback / softback Book

William Cowper : The Task and Selected Other Poems Paperback / softback

Part of the Longman Annotated Texts series

Paperback / softback

Description

Having previously suffered neglect as a result of Pope's dominance of the period, William Cowper (1731-1800) has now become a far more important figure in eighteenth-century literature.

Following the successful format of the series, Professor Sambrook's edition consists of a comprehensive, contextual editor's introduction together with substantial annotation on the page.

The Task (1785) is the principal text discussed together with a selection of Cowper's other poems which cover a wide range of his subjects, moods and styles.
