The eighteenth century English poet, dramatist and philosopher, Edward Young is best remembered today for the enormously popular ‘Night-Thoughts’, a long, didactic poem contemplating the theme of death. The poem was inspired by the successive deaths of Young’s stepdaughter, her husband and the poet’s own wife over a five year period. Composed in blank-verse, it is a dramatic monologue of nearly 10,000 lines, divided into nine parts, or “Nights.” Young’s fame in Europe was further developed by his prose masterpiece, ‘Conjectures on Original Composition’, addressed to his friend, the novelist Samuel Richardson. The essay succinctly explores concepts that would later epitomise the principal concerns of the Romantic movement. The Delphi Poets Series offers readers the works of literature’s finest poets, with superior formatting. For the first time in digital publishing, this volume presents Young’s complete works, with related illustrations and the usual Delphi bonus material.

More than fifty specialists have contributed to this new edition of volume 2 of The Cambridge Bibliography of English Literature. The design of the original work has established itself so firmly as a workable solution to the immense problems of analysis, articulation and coordination that it has been retained in all its essentials for the new edition. The task of the new contributors has been to revise and integrate the lists of 1940 and 1957, to add materials of the following decade, to correct and refine the bibliographical details already available, and to re-shape the whole according to a new series of conventions devised to give greater clarity and consistency to the entries.
