Synopsis

“Extraordinarily well-researched and readable, this is a superb edition of works by one of the finest and most influential writers of the Romantic era.” — Paula Feldman, University of South Carolina|At her death in 1825, Anna Letitia Barbauld was considered one of the great writers of her time. Distinguished as a poet and essayist, she was also in innovator in children’s literature, an eloquent supporter of liberal politics, and a literary critic of stature. This edition includes a generous selection of her poetry and the first comprehensive body of her prose in more than a century, with essays—some never before reprinted—on literature, religion, education, prejudice, women’s fashions, and class conflict.
