The Morgesons and Other Writings, Published and Unpublished

作者:Elizabeth Stoddard

The Morgesons and Other Writings, Published and Unpublished by Elizabeth Stoddard, edited with a critical introduction by Lawrence Buell and Sandra A. Zagarell. This is the University of Pennsylvania Press softcover, fifth paperback printing from 1992, ISBN 0-8122-1170-7. It was issued without a dust jacket.

The collection is centred on Stoddard’s 1862 novel The Morgesons, a distinctive nineteenth-century American coming-of-age novel concerned with family, social restraint, women’s autonomy, property, and personal will. The volume also gathers short fiction, journalism, letters, journal material, and other published and previously unpublished writings, supported by editorial and biographical material.

Included with the book is an especially interesting academic association item: a typed letter dated July 5, 1995, on Harvard University Department of English and American Literature and Language letterhead. It is addressed to Professor Andy Silber at Victoria College, University of Toronto, discusses teaching The Morgesons, and is hand-signed “Larry.” The letter’s context strongly suggests co-editor and Harvard scholar Lawrence Buell, although the signature is offered without independent authentication. Portions of the letter have intentionally been concealed in the photographs to protect its content.

The book is in Like-New condition and presents cleanly in the supplied photographs. The accompanying letter has normal folds from correspondence. Please review all photographs carefully, as they form part of the description and show the exact book and letter included.
