The Cornell Wordsworth: A Supplement

about

This essential companion to the 21 Volumes of the Cornell Wordsworth has been described as 'indispensable for the serious Wordsworth scholar'

Wordsworth's The Excursion (1814), published in 2007, was the twenty-first and final volume of the Cornell Wordsworth. Each volume in the series is complete in itself, but no volume supplied tools useful to anyone studying two or more volumes.

In this supplementary volume, designed to match your Cornell Wordsworth collection, and updated in September 2011, the reader will find:

1. a unified index to titles and first lines for the entire series
2. a guide to the hundreds of manuscripts treated in the twenty-one volumes
3. a comprehensive list of the contents of Wordsworth's many lifetime editions
4. appendices containing information had been omitted from previous volumes
5. a list of errata for several volumes in the series.
