Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Poetical Works, Vol. 2 of 4: And Other Writings of John Keats, Now First Brought Together, Including Poems and Numerous Letters Not Before Published; Edited With Notes and Appendices [On the 12th of July 1819 Keats wrote to Reynolds that he had "proceeded pretty well with ´Lamia´, finishing the first part, which consists of about four hundred lines." He adds, "I have great hopes of success, because I make use of my judgment more deliberately than 1 yet have done; but in case of failure with the world, I shall find my content." Lord Houghton records, on the authority of Charles Armitage Brown, that Lamia "had been in hand some time", and that Keats wrote it "with great care, after much study of Dryden´s versification." In August Keats wrote to Baily from Winchester mentioning the "half-finished" Lamia among recent work. On the 5th of September 1819 he wrote to Taylor that he had finished Lamia since finishing "the tragedy" (Otho the Great). The manuscript of Lamia consists of twenty-six leaves, foolscap folio, generally written upon one side only. It is a carefully written manuscript, finally revised for the press, and shows unmistakeable evidence of having been used for printer´s copy. The extract from Burton does not figure in it; but there is the following foot-note on page i: - "The ground work of this story will be found in Burton´s Anatomy of Melancholy´ Part 3. Sect.3. Memb. 1st. Subs, 1st." H.B.F.] About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
