Specially commissioned essays offer revisionary readings of canonical poets and bring into focus rediscovered writers.

Combines psychoanalytic theory with sociohistorical criticism to examine a selection of tales by the female aesthete and intellectual Vernon Lee (Violet Paget, 1856-1935). This title argues that the prevalence of the past in Lee's tales signifies not only an historical but a psychic past.

This, the first collection of essays on the aesthete and intellectual Vernon Lee, offers a wide range of critical writings by scholars. Key works are examined including Euphorion, Hauntings: Fantastic Stories and Music and Its Lovers . New light is shed on Lee's relationships with contemporaries such as Lee-Hamilton, Pater and Wilde.
