Abstract

One of the themes that emerges in Robert Morrison's impressive edition of De Quincey's selected works, in Oxford University Press's "21 SP st sp Century Oxford Authors" series, is the extent to which the author was awed by the sheer quantity of print, the mass of books and magazines, circulating among readers in Britain and abroad, on a scale never before known. The other was with James Hogg, with whom De Quincey embarked on a laborious process of not only editing, but revising, many of his most well-known works, including the I Confessions i , which Morrison rightly treats as a work in its own right.
