註釋
First published in 1937 by Arthur Raleigh Humphreys, this four-part volume traces the life of the English poet William Shenstone (1714-1763) from his birth in Halesowen, Shropshire to his death at the famous estate, The Leasowes. Through a detailed examination of Shenstone's poetical works and personal correspondence, Professor Humphreys assembles a vivid sketch of his life and character while also setting right some of the damages of neglect done to his literary legacy. This work remains one of the few reliable studies of a poet on whom too little scholarship exists.
