Each of the 21 volumes of "The Cornell Wordsworth," one of the great scholarly editions of our time, is complete in itself, but few volumes supplied tools useful to anyone studying two or more volumes. In this supplementary volume the reader will find a unified index to titles and first lines for the entire series, a guide to the hundreds of manuscripts treated in the twenty-one volumes, and a comprehensive list of the contents of Wordsworth's many lifetime editions. The chance to provide such tools in a volume supplementary to the series made it possible as well to include information...

The three-volume edition of Wordsworth's poems is the most comprehensive edition now in print and contains reading texts chosen from the 21 volumes of the Cornell Wordsworth.

Yeats first expressed interest in producing translations of Greek classical plays in March of 1903, in the early days of establishing the Abbey Theatre in Dublin. But not until two decades later did he turn his hand to creating his own versions of Sophocles' Oedipus the King and Oedipus at Colonus. Working from Victorian translations into English and French by classicists R. C. Jebb and Paul Masqueray, he completed Oedipus the King in the fall of 1926 and Oedipus at Colonus a year later.

The second play, like the first, he gave directly to the...
