Keepers of the Flame: Literary Estates and the Rise of Biography

Cover
Hutchinson, 1992 - 344 Seiten
Many of our most treasured works of literature, including John Donne's sonnets and Shakespeare's plays, have been preserved more by accident than by design. Key writings from the past have been burned, stolen, suppressed or edited by widows or friends anxious to preserve a sanitized image of the writer in question, sometimes for profit or self-aggrandizement.
