1. Students are recommended to use Wu, but since they are required to
buy the Norton Anthology in Level 1, they can use that anthology for
much of their reading. We are considering using only the Norton in
future.
2. We recommend, as a starting point, both Wu's anthology and the
Norton Anthology, but suggest specific textual editions for indvidual
authors on the module.
3. we make our own anthology
4. Wordsworth, William, William Wordsworth: the Major Works, edited by
Stephen Gill (Oxford: Oxford University Press)
5. Mellor and Matlak
6. Norton Anthology of Poetry
7. Jeffrey N. Cox and Michael Gamer (eds.) The Broadview Anthology of
Romantic Drama (Broadview Press) Paul Baines and Edward Burns
(eds.) Five Romantic Plays, 1768-1821 (Oxford World’s Classics)
8. No anthology is required; but I mention Wu and the old Trilling/Bloom
anthologies as places to sample authors
9. We do use Wu, but this is the only way I can explain that this is
because it is a set text for the Romantic Core in Year 2. Students are
free to source the poems differently if they wish; the bulk of the module
relies on the novel
10. Jerome McGann's New Oxford Book of Romantic Period Verse
11. Mellor and Matlak, British Literature 1780-1835
12. We use two - Wu's anthology, but also Fiona Robertson's Women's
Writing 1778-1838
13. No specific anthology is recommended, but it is suggested that
purchasing one might be a good investment, particularly for students
taking a specialist module in Romantic Poetry later in the final year.
The campus bookshop ensures that students are offered a reasonable
choice of anthologies, both period-specific and more general.
