Poems of A. E. Housman

«... an impressive work of scholarship, meticulous in its research, clear in its presentation, thoughtful in it arguments and evaluations - and not without touches of dry humour./ ... a wonderful scholarly enterprise./ Like it or not, we are going to have to change our views of some of the poems Housman wrote, as we seem now to have them in a form nearer to what he probably intended;/ Archie Burnett has fulfilled his editor's duty superbly;/ Alan Holden (journal not named)»

Features poetry that reveals the shaping processes of the author's poetic thought. This work also contains commentary that traces the range of echoes and allusions - Biblical, Classical, and contemporary, as well as providing information on persons, places, and historical context, the dating of poems, and his linguistic usage.

«editing Housman's poetry is one of the tetchiest of challenges in English literary scholarship ... In his new Oxford edition of The Poems of A. E. Housman Archie Burnett looks to have triumphed. Here are 600 pages of minutely detailed scholarship. True evaluation of this edition will take as many years as its compilation, but I believe even Housman would have saluted its erudition.»
