Bibliography of Primary and Secondary Sources

I include:

A list of all the manuscripts which contain handwritten copies of Anne Finch's poems, both those which were openly attributed to her in print and those which were not. In an appendix to my book I will include a list of the unattributed poems and arguments for attribution. For now the list and arguments may be found in my chronology of Finch's poems (which includes all her poems, a brief description of them, their earliest printing history, all the various anthologies they have appeared in, and their sources if they are translations or imitations or allusive). A list of all 20th century editions of Finch's poetry, none of which are complete. (I have now been able to include the most recent partial edition of Finch's poetry by Barbara McGovern and Charles Hinnant.) A link to a bibliography of books Finch used as source texts for her translations and adaptations; this includes books of the same type which she may have been influenced by, and a list of secondary books on this material. A link to an annotated list of the precise sources of each of Finch's fables. Here the interested reader finds Finch's poem next to each of the sources. A list of those secondary sources which directly relate to Anne or her family members and close friends and the places where she lived. Here are also those critical and scholarly essays and books which have been written about her texts or her life thus far. A more general bibliography made up of primary materials and studies which provide a more detailed and accurate (non-anachronistic) picture of Anne Finch's time, milieu, and the people she spent her life among. A link to an updated bibliography of translation studies. A detailed history of the anthologizing of Finch's poetry from the late 17th through to the end of the 20th century.

Here is a list of all the anthologies in which Anne Finch's poetry has appeared, of significant separate reprints of individual poems either where they come well after her death or where the texts were taken from previous printed books). The chronologies cite the first name of the editor and the year of the edition. For most of the older anthologies I have included the pagination. The anthologies are subdivided into centuries and then alphabetized.

• Wright, Thomas. The Female Virtuosos, with a dedication to Charles Finch, Earl of Winchilsea. London, 1693. This includes "Song: 'Love, thou art the best of human joys'," and lines given to Mariana which may be by Anne: "'For the soft joys of Love no longer last,/When once the fatal Yea our Lips has past;/Then we begin to court and to comply,/Oft we only Rule, while we deny.'

The Twentieth Century, the First Half (1900-50)

• Ault, Norman, ed. A Treasury of Unfamiliar Lyrics. London: Gollancz, 1938. Ault prints "The Tree," and as Finch's, he titles as "A Song on the South Sea", and prints for the second time 'Ombre and basset laid aside'," from B. M. MS Lansdowne, pp. 298-99. It also appears with a row of Anne's poems (unacknowledged and unattributed) in the 1724 Hive
• Bax, Clifford and Meum Stewart, edd. The Distaff Muse. London: Hollis and Carter, 1949. While this is the earliest of the rebirth of anthologies which reprint women's poetry separately from men's, the choice is not in the direction of feminist protest, but an Arnoldian tradition of high seriousness and beauty and an idea of what women traditionally write about (love, husbands, nature). It is nontheless an excellent anthology as they really go to manuscripts and choose within these standards fine poems not easy to be found elsewhere by many still unknown women. They reprint "The Tree," "A Letter to Dafnis. April 2D 1685," "A Song: 'Love thou are best of human joys'," and "Ardelia to Melancholy," pp. 23-25.
• Bernbaum, Ernest. English Poets of the Eighteenth Century. New York: Scribner, 1918. The Modern Student's Library. Bernbaum includes "To the Nightingale," and "A Nocturnal Reverie," pp. 74-76.
• Bredvold, Louis I, Alan D. McKillop and Lois Whitney, edd. Eighteenth-Century Poetry and Prose. New York: Ronald Press, 2939. They print "To the Echo," "The Bird," "The Tree," "To the Nightingale," and "A Nocturnal Reverie," pp. 154-56. As with Ronald Crane's anthology (see next list item), this anthology is important in the history of Anne's reputation as it adheres to the view that there was a proto-romantic movement in the century and reprints many poems and choses others on this basis, and was a primary school text for college courses.
• Crane, Ronald, ed. A Collection of English Poems, 1660-1800. New York and London: University of Chicago Press, 1932. Crane includes "To the Nightingale, " "The Tree," "A Nocturnal Reverie," "A sigh." As in the case of the Bredvold/McKillop/Whitney anthology above, this volume consistently reprints the lesser known and what used to be called proto- romantic poetry of the century and was a primary school text for college courses. Thus it too is an important historical document. Ironically both includes poems that are hard to find today and are very good.
• Dowden, Edward, "A Noble Authoress," Essays: Modern and Elizabethan. 1910; reprinted New York: Books for Libraries, 1970, pp. 234-49. Dowden was the first to print any of the poems from the Wellesley manuscript; Dowden's essay was noticed; he printed the whole or parts of the following: "the puggs," "The agreeable," "The white mouses petition to Lamira the Right Hon: ble the Lady Ann Tufton now Countess of Salisbury," "To the Hon be Mrs H---n," 'Where is the trust in human things','" "To the Rev Mr Bedford: 'On me then Sir as on a friend','", "A Ballad to Mrs Catherine Fleming in London from Malshanger farm in Hampshire," "To the right Honourable Frances Countess of Hartford who engaged Mr Eusden to write upon a wood enjoining him to mention no tree but the Aspen & no flower but the King-cup,' "On the Death of the Queen, Mary of Modena," Untitled: 'Sir plausible as 'tis well known'," "Mary Magdalen at our Saviour's Tomb." Despite Dowden's irritatingly condescending tone, this essay is an important moment in Finch studies.
• Hughes, Helen Sard Hughes, "Lady Winchilsea and Her Friends," London Mercury, 19 (1928-9), 624-35. She reprints from the Wellesley manuscript part of "On the Death of the Queen," "A Ballad to Mrs Catherine Fleming in London from Malshanger Farm in Hampshire," "A Letter to the Hon: Lady Worseley at Long-Leat: 'From the sweet pleasures of a rural seat'," "A Letter to Mrs Arabella Marow: 'For can our correspondence please ...'." This was the second calling attention to the Wellesley manuscript. Hughes treats Finch with respect.
• Smith, David Nichol, ed. The Oxford Book of Eighteenth Century Verse. Oxford: Clarendon Press, 1926. Includes "The Portrait" (lines from "The Birthday of Catherine Tufton," "The Petition for an Absolute Retreat," "The Tree," "A Nocturnal Reverie," pp. 39-46.
• Squire, J. C. The Cambridge Book of Lesser Poets. London: Cambridge, 1927. This individually selected and tasteful volume includes "The Soldier's Death" (from "All is Vanity," Stanza 3, lines 100-8), "To Death," "A Nocturnal Reverie," pp. 199-200.
• Tutin, J. R, ed., selected and privately printed. The Orinda Booklets. Extra Series. Hill, 1905. She reprints Katherine Philips (Vol 1), Robert Heath (2), Henry Reynodls (3), Thormas Flatman (4) and Anne, Countess of Winchilsea (5). The poems are "Petition for an Absolute Retreat," "A Nocturnal Reverie," "To the Nightingale," "The Shepherd and the Calm," The Spleen," "Life's Progress," "Life, Death and Reputation," "The Atheist and the Acorn," "An Anser: Disarm'd with so genteel an air," "A song from Aristomenes, Act 3: "A Young Shepherd his life," "Moral Song: Would we attain he happiest State'", "A Song Persuade me not, there is a grace, " pp. 1-31. The epigraph is provided by Wordsworth.

They reprint "Adam Pos'd," "The Atheist and the Acorn," and "A Nocturnal Reverie," pp. 795-796.

Compare it to Crane or Bredvold and you see two different 18 centuries, though not two different Anne's.
