Description

This fifth volume in the authoritative complete edition of W. H. Auden's works, edited by Edward Mendelson, collects the essays, reviews, and prose writings Auden published between 1949 and December 1955. The collection spans from his first book of criticism, The Enchafed Flood, through the period immediately before his election as Professor of Poetry at Oxford. All texts have been newly edited from Auden's original manuscripts, with comprehensive notes documenting textual variations. This meticulously curated volume offers scholars, academics, and serious readers access to a crucial period of Auden's intellectual development and literary criticism, presenting definitive versions of works previously scattered across journals, magazines, and unpublished archives.
