Böcker i Cultural Formations: The Eighteenth Century-serien

The publication of Percy's Reliques marked the point at which 18th century neo-classicism became late 18th century Gothic Romanticism. A superb example of period publishing, it contains scarce proofsheets, excluded from the original edition.

This best-selling anthology of 18th century poetry was edited by Alexander Pope's protege, Robert Dodsley. Dodsley became the most celebrated publisher of the age when the anthology went through 11 editions in 34 years.

This set publishes two of the most influential critical works of the eighteenth-century together for the first time; Hurd's Letters on Chivalry and Romance and Warton's Observations on the Fairy Queen
