ReviewsThis rich and varied selection of poems, letters and reviews, centered and guided by Judith Pascoe's rich and sympathetic scholarship, amply illustrates why Mary Robinson is so crucial a figure for understanding the development of English verse between the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. With its range and inclusiveness, its authentic artistic claims, and its scholarly weight, Mary Robinson: Selected Poems is an edition to be universally celebrated as repaying a long overdue debt, and with generous interest. Even in Broadview's exemplary list of recovered literature, it is a standout, a truly major accomplishment., Mary Robinson was one of the most significant authors of the Romantic era; her poetic vision is in many ways a counterpoint to that of Samuel Taylor Coleridge and William Wordsworth. At last, this expertly edited, well researched and affordable edition makes Robinson's innovative and influential poetry accessible again to a wide audience. It is a superb selection which gives a fully rounded view of Robinson's poetic production.

Synopsis"At last, this expertly edited, well researched and affordable edition makes Robinson's innovative and influential poetry accessible again to a wide audience." -- Paula Feldman, University of South Carolina, Mary Robinson's work has begun again to assume a central place in discussions of Romanticism. A writer of the 1790's--a decade which saw the birth of Romanticism, revolution, and enormous popular engagement with political ideas--Robinson was acknowledged in her time as a leading poet. Her writing exhibits great variety: charm, theatricality, and emotional resonance are all characteristics Robinson displays. She was by turns a poet of sensibility, a poet of popular culture, a chronicler of the major events of the time, and a participant in some of its chief aesthetic innovations. This long-awaited collection is the first critical edition of her poems.
