项目摘要

Robert Southey (1774-1843) was a poet, essayist, historian, biographer, translator and polemicist. He was also one of the most controversial of all Romantic period writers. A high-profile, prolific and experimental author, he was centrally involved in literary culture in late eighteenth- and early nineteenth-century Britain. The brother-in-law of Samuel Taylor Coleridge and the associate of William Wordsworth, he was closely acquainted with many of the leading writers of a key period in British literary history, a period that saw Britain beset by war abroad and political, social and industrial change at home. Although Southey was a prolific correspondent - writing to most of the major figures of his day - his informative, polemical, gossipy, revealing and eminently readable letters have never been published in full. Indeed, many of his surviving letters have never been published at all. My research project - 'The Collected Letters of Robert Southey. Part 1: 1791-97' - is the first part of a new eight part collected edition of these letters. It will be published by the international peer-reviewed electronic edition specialists 'Romantic Circles' and will make available in electronic form and via a free-access web-site the surviving letters Southey wrote in the years 1791 to 1797, a time which saw him go from disaffected schoolboy versifier to an adult identified as the leading radical, experimental poet of the day. By providing freshly edited and succinctly annotated texts of the letters Southey produced at the very beginning of his career, this research will transform current understanding of this key stage of his development, including his relationships with his direct contemporaries Coleridge and Wordsworth. It will advance knowledge of the culture of early Romanticism and awareness of the links between literature and radical politics in the 1790s. It will massively facilitate the work of future scholars and be of use to more general readers interested in late eighteenth and early nineteenth century British culture.

罗伯特·索西（1774-1843）是一位诗人、散文家、历史学家、传记作家、翻译家和辩论家。他也是浪漫主义时期最具争议的作家之一。他是一位备受瞩目、多产且富有实验精神的作家，是18世纪末和19世纪初英国文学文化的核心人物。作为塞缪尔·泰勒·柯勒律治的姐夫和威廉·华兹华斯的伙伴，他与英国文学史上一个关键时期的许多著名作家都有密切的联系，在这个时期，英国受到了海外战争和国内政治、社会和工业变革的困扰。尽管Southey是一位多产的通讯员——给他那个时代的大多数主要人物写过信——但他的信内容丰富、论战性强、八卦性强、揭露性强、可读性强，从来没有全文发表过。事实上，他的许多幸存的信件从未发表过。我的研究项目是《罗伯特·苏塞书信集》《第1部分：1791- 1797》是这些信件的新八部分合集的第一部分。它将由国际同行评议的电子版专家“浪漫圈”出版，并将以电子形式和免费访问网站提供苏塞在1791年至1797年间写的幸存信件，这段时间见证了他从一个心怀不满的学生诗人成长为一个被认为是当时最激进的实验诗人的成年人。通过提供最新编辑和简洁注释的信件文本，这项研究将改变目前对他发展的关键阶段的理解，包括他与直接同时代的柯勒律治和华兹华斯的关系。它将促进对早期浪漫主义文化的了解，以及对18世纪90年代文学与激进政治之间联系的认识。它将极大地促进未来学者的工作，并对更多对18世纪末和19世纪初英国文化感兴趣的普通读者有用。
