Although not a complete bibliography of his poetic work, this delightful compendium comprises a collection of Cowper s most influential and celebrated poems. A worthy addition to any bookshelf and a must-have for both collectors of Cowper and connoisseurs of 18th century poetry, the contents of this classic text were pivotal in shaping and defining English nature poetry genre in the 1700s. One of the great poets of his time, William Cowper was an important figure in the establishment of nature poetry and was one of the main progenitors of Romantic poetry. Hailed as the best modern poet by Samuel Coleridge, Cowper wrote many seminal poetic works, the most influential of which include: The Task (_1785), Olney Hymns (1779), and John Gilpin (1782). William Cowper was an English hymnodist and poet, most notably renowned for his contributions to early romantic poetry. We are proud to republish this scarce book with an introductory biography of the author."

This volume completes the Oxford English Texts edition of Cowper's poems. It contains the poetry he wrote in the last fifteen years of his life, after the publication of The Task had established him as the leading poet of his day. While working on a translation of Homer (not a part of this edition), Cowper found time to produce a wealth of shorter poems, ranging in style from the humour of `The Dog and the Water-Lily' and `The Retired Cat', to the restrained pathos of `On the Receipt of My Mother's Picture out of Norfolk', and `To Mary' (addressed to his companion, Mrs Unwin); and from the reflective tone of `Yardley Oak' to the vulgar energy of the ballads against slavery. His last masterpiece, `The Cast-Away', an expression of the profound misery which had possessed him for most of his adult life, is followed by a series of brilliant translations such as `The Snail'. This contrast of utter despair with humour and careful workmanship gives poetic form to the endlessly fascinating riddle of Cowper's life and personality. The texts are based on manuscripts as well as early editions of the poetry, and are supplied with textual annotation and commentary. The translations of Latin and Italian poems of Milton, in which the poet William Hayley made alterations with Cowper's approval, are for the first time printed so that the reader can distinguish Hayley's work from Cowper's, and see Cowper's original wording.

Having previously suffered neglect as a result of Pope's dominance of the period, William Cowper (1731-1800) has now become a far more important figure in eighteenth-century literature. Following the successful format of the series, Professor Sambrook's edition consists of a comprehensive, contextual editor's introduction together with substantial annotation on the page. The Task (1785) is the principal text discussed together with a selection of Cowper's other poems which cover a wide range of his subjects, moods and styles.
