The Italian or The Confessional
of the Black Penitents
A ROMANCE
By
ANN RADCLIFFE;
edited with an introduction by
FREDERICK GARBER,
State University of New York at Binghamton.
This edition of
The Italian
is a
reprint with corrections of the first edition of 1797. A major document in the
history of the Gothic and related movements as well as of Romanticism,
The
Italian
survives not only for its historical importance, but also because of the
character of its hero whose personality went far beyond the Gothic conventions
to hint at symbolic dimensions which were later taken up by Mrs. Radcliffe's
successors.

The Works of Sir Thomas Malory
SECOND EDITION
Edited by EUGENE VINAVER, University of Wisconsin.
Since the publication
of the three-volume first edition in 1947, more has been written about Malory
and his works than during any comparable period in the past. Without departing
from the method of editing adopted in the first edition, the editor has completely
reconstructed the text, revising more than 200 passages. 9

The Collected Letters of
George Meredith
In three volumes, $42.50
By
C. L. CLINE,
University of Texas.
Since the publication of an edition of
George Meredith's letters by his son in 1912, many new letters by Meredith have
come to light. For this edition all the published and many unpublished letters
have been brought together. Included in the close to 3000 letters are those to the
Misses Lawrence, previously inaccessible, and complete texts of the letters to
Admiral Maxse and Leslie Stephens, from which personal details were often
deleted by Meredith's son.

Collected Letters of
Samuel Taylor Coleridge
VOLUMES V AND VI
Edited by
EARL LESLIE GRIGGS,
University of California, Santa Barbara.
The editor has assembled all the known letters of Coleridge written between 1820
and 1834. They number over 600, more than half of which are published here
for the first time. They reveal Coleridge's preoccupation with the great questions
of religious philosophy and indicate something of the comprehensive nature of
his projected but unfinished
magnum opus, the Assertion of Religion.
