The Journals of Mary Shelley 1814-1844
by Mary . Shelley
"Although [Mary Shelley] would be appalled at the thought of her secret sorrows being transcribed for all eyes, she was a good enough scholar to appreciate the fine work of her present editors."--Claire Tomalin, New York Review of Books."[A] lavishly well-documented edition. . . . Paula Feldman and Diana Scott-Kilvert guide the reader through the labyrinth of the Shelleys' (and Godwins') legal and financial difficulties, correct the diarist's inaccuracies and chronology, and check her entries against other sources."--Chris Baldick, Times Literary Supplement.The definitive account of Mary Shelley's life from her own pen is now available in a single softcover volume. Here we see even more vividly than in her letters her sympathetic identification with nature and her struggles with--and ultimate surrender to--the lifelong depression that followed her husband's death. Supplementing the text are extensive annotations, a chronology, a thorough index, maps of the Shelleys' travels, portraits of acquaintances, appendices giving biographical accounts of the members of Mary Shelley's social circles in Pisa and London, the Shelleys' reading lists, and a bibliography."Meticulously edited and fascinatingly annotated . . . [this volume is] a mine of information about the entire Shelley circle, and will have permanent value for anyone seriously interested in the Romantic period."--The Year's Work in English Studies."A fine scholarly edition."--Brian Aldiss, Washington Post Book World
