项目摘要

Research context:Robert Southey (1774-1843), poet, essayist, historian, biographer, translator and polemicist, was one of the most controversial of all Romantic period writers. He was a central figure in late C18th and early C19th British culture, a time of imperial expansion that saw Britain beset by war abroad and political, social and industrial change at home. Although Southey was a prolific correspondent, his letters have never been published in full. At present, the published letters are available only in out-of-print C19th and C20th selections, the former edited according to C19th conventions, with texts censored and cut. In addition, c.1500 letters have never been published at all. Aims and objectives:The Collected Letters will revolutionize this situation, making these important documents available in one place, many for the first time. The 3200+ letters will be transcribed from original manuscripts, freshly edited and annotated to the very highest standards. c.1500 will be published for the first time, thus providing readers with a vast amount of new information about Southey's life, works and relationships with contemporaries. The edition will thus fill a huge gap in Southey's writings. It will, furthermore, provide its intended audience of literary scholars and historians with the textual resources essential to future work on his life, works and intersections with his peers - writers, politicians, campaigners and scientists.Edited by a team of experienced, interdisciplinary scholars, the Collected Letters is an electronic edition and will be published from 2008-12 by the long-established, peer-reviewed specialists Romantic Circles [http://www.rc.umd.edu]. Romantic Circles' involvement is testimony to the project's internationally recognized significance. The technical expertise and financial support provided by Romantic Circles will ensure that the Collected Letters will incorporate the very highest electronic production values and be made available to the widest possible audience on a free-access web-site. The co-applicants have already carried out a great deal of preliminary research. This application is for funding to allow them to complete the first half of the Collected Letters (Parts 1-4, scheduled for publication 2007-9) and to lay the foundations for the second half. In addition, the project RA will produce supplementary bibliographical databases, making these available on a free-access web-site. They will thus provide a set of unique research tools essential for completion of the Collected Letters and of great value to scholars working on Southey and British Romanticism.Applications and benefits:The Collected Letters appears at a time when interest in Southey is increasing rapidly, a situation testified to by the appearance in 2004 of the first major critical edition of his early-mid career poetry (Robert Southey: Poetical Works 1793-1810, eds. Pratt, Fulford and Roberts, 5 vols: Pickering and Chatto) and in 2006 by the publication of a new biography (W. A. Speck, Robert Southey: Man of Letters, Yale UP) and the first ever collection of essays devoted to his impact upon Romantic-period culture (Robert Southey and the Contexts of English Romanticism, ed. Lynda Pratt, Ashgate). The Collected Letters will build upon these achievements, advancing critical understanding of Southey as a major writer central to a re-historicised, public Romanticism. The edition will be published serially (2007-2012) and at all stages will fill acknowledged gaps both in knowledge of Southey's life and works and in understanding of his relationships with his contemporaries. It will be consulted by scholars from a range of disciplines: literary critics and historians. It will also become the standard scholarly resource for generations of researchers to come, taking its place alongside the collected editions of the correspondence of his peers, Coleridge and Wordsworth.

研究背景：罗伯特·苏西(1774-1843)，诗人、散文家、历史学家、传记作家、翻译家和辩论家，是浪漫主义时期最具争议的作家之一。他是18世纪末19世纪初英国文化的核心人物，在帝国扩张时期，英国受到国外战争和国内政治、社会和工业变革的困扰。尽管索塞是一位多产的记者，但他的信件从未全文发表过。目前，发表的信件只有绝版的C19和C20精选，前者根据C19惯例编辑，文本经过审查和删减。此外，c.1500封信件根本没有发表过。目的和目标：收集的信件将彻底改变这种情况，使这些重要文件在一个地方可用，其中许多是第一次。这3200多封信将从原始手稿转录，新编辑并以最高标准进行注释。C.1500将首次出版，从而为读者提供大量关于索西的生活、作品和与同时代人的关系的新信息。因此，该版本将填补索西著作中的一个巨大空白。此外，它还将为文学学者和历史学家的目标受众提供必要的文本资源，这些资源对于未来研究他的生平、作品以及与他的同行--作家、政治家、活动家和科学家--的交流是必不可少的。由一个经验丰富的跨学科学者团队编辑的《收集的信件》是一个电子版，将于2008年至2012年由久负盛名的同行评审专家浪漫主义圈子出版[http://www.rc.umd.edu].浪漫圈子的参与证明了该项目的国际公认的重要性。浪漫主义圈子提供的技术专长和财政支持将确保收集的信件将纳入最高的电子产品价值，并在免费访问的网站上提供给尽可能广泛的受众。共同申请者已经进行了大量的初步研究。这项申请是为了获得资金，使他们能够完成收集的信函的前半部分(第1-4部分，计划于2007-2009年出版)，并为后半部分奠定基础。此外，RA项目还将制作补充书目数据库，供免费访问的网站使用。因此，它们将提供一套独特的研究工具，对完成《南方诗集》至关重要，对研究南方和英国浪漫主义的学者具有重要价值。应用和好处：《南方诗集》出现之际，人们对南方的兴趣迅速增加，2004年他的职业生涯早期-中期诗歌的第一个主要批评版(罗伯特·苏西：诗歌作品1793-1810，编)的出现证明了这一情况。普雷特，富尔福德和罗伯茨，5卷：皮克林和查托)，并在2006年出版了一本新的传记(W.A.斯派克，罗伯特·索西：文学家，耶鲁大学)和第一本致力于他对浪漫主义时期文化的影响的散文集(罗伯特·索西和英国浪漫主义的背景，编辑)。琳达·普拉特，阿什盖特)。《书信集》将在这些成就的基础上，促进对索西作为一位主要作家的批判性理解，这是重新历史化的公共浪漫主义的核心。该版本将连续出版(2007-2012)，在所有阶段都将填补人们在了解索西的生平和作品以及了解他与同时代人之间的关系方面的空白。它将由来自一系列学科的学者参考：文学批评家和历史学家。它也将成为未来几代研究人员的标准学术资源，与他的同行柯勒律治和华兹华斯的书信收集版并驾齐驱。
