Abstract
Abstract:The critical conversation regarding the poetic achievement of Letitia Landon has been deformed by the influence of posthumous editions that remake and misrepresent her work. Emma Roberts’s edition of The Zenana and Minor Poems of L.E.L. (1839) and Leman Blanchard’s Life and Literary Remains of L.E.L. (1841) have too often been taken by Landon scholars as reliable sources, yet both occlude and alter her poems in serious ways. Landon herself creatively recycled earlier work: much of her originality depends on her manipulation of its changing media contexts. Thinking coherently about Landon’s poetry requires an extensive acquaintance with her textual history.
期刊介绍：
Studies in Romanticism was founded in 1961 by David Bonnell Green at a time when it was still possible to wonder whether "romanticism" was a term worth theorizing (as Morse Peckham deliberated in the first essay of the first number). It seemed that it was, and, ever since, SiR (as it is known to abbreviation) has flourished under a fine succession of editors: Edwin Silverman, W. H. Stevenson, Charles Stone III, Michael Cooke, Morton Palet, and (continuously since 1978) David Wagenknecht. There are other fine journals in which scholars of romanticism feel it necessary to appear - and over the years there are a few important scholars of the period who have not been represented there by important work.
