Title
Letitia Elizabeth Landon Selected Writings (Broadview Literary Texts Series),Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
The work of L.E.L. began to be published when she was only seventeen, and in her early twenties Landon had already achieved considerable renown. As a widely envied independent woman in London society, however, she was increasingly the subject of scandalous gossip. Eventually she married the governor of a colony in West Africa, and died under mysterious circumstances soon after arriving in Africa, aged thirtysix. Landons life contributed very largely to the nineteenthcentury archetype of the poet as a breed apart, heroic but doomed. Her poetry, however, was until very recently largely forgotten; this is the first twentiethcentury edition of her poems, which the editors describe as cold and sentimental at the same time, flat and intense.In addition to a broad selection of Landons poetry and prose, this volume also includes a wide variety of contextual materials and a comprehensive bibliography.
