Overview

TEXT 10opens with six essays that treat a variety of texts from a predominantly theoretical focus. Among them are J.C.C. Mays and Robert Spoo's discussion of Hans Walter Gabler's controversial edition ofUlysses; Marta L. Werner's meditations on Emily Dickinson's late fragments; and Nick Frankel's consideration of Oscar Wilde'sSalome"as a Work of Contradiction." Also featured are a cluster of essays on copyright and the status of texts--crucial questions for all textual scholars--and nine more specialized studies on topics ranging from "AnnotatingPiers Plowman" to Virginia Woolf's revisions ofBetween the Acts, with the essays arranged in chronological order of subject. The review section opens with three review essays on major multi-volume editions (the Cornell Yeats, the works of Washington Irving, and the Howells edition) that situate these editions within current debates on author, text, and cultural context. Twelve reviews of individual studies or editions complete the volume. W. Speed Hill is Professor of English, Lehman College and The Graduate Center, CUNY. Edward M. Burns is Professor of English, William Paterson College. Peter L. Shillingsburg is Professor of English, University of North Texas
