Taylor & Francis Ltd Thomas Chatterton Early Sources and Responses
Book SynopsisThe revival of interest in medieval life and literature during the 18th century led to a fanatical search for antiquarian literary treasures - forgers such as James Macpherson, William Henry Ireland and Thomas Chatterton provided them to their willing and eager patrons. Chatterton wrote on scraps of old parchment and posed it as the work of Thomas Rowley and others.The publication of Thomas Tyrwhitt's first collection of Rowley poems in 1777 gave rise to a heated literary controversy regarding their authenticity. This is a collection of the major contemporary contributions to this controversy - all of them extremely rare.Trade Review'...These reprints will go a significant way towards enabling a reconceptualization of the later 18th century, and restoring this perversely neglected episode to literary history.' - Nick Groom, Times Higher Education SupplementTable of ContentsFirst Collected Edition of the Rowley Poems [1777]Thomas ChattertonEdited by Thomas Tyrwhitt 336ppThe Life of Thomas Chatterton with Criticisms on his Genius and Writings and a concise View of the Controversy concerning Rowley's Poems [1789]George Gregory 272ppThe Life of Thomas Chatterton including his unpublished Poems and Correspondence [1837]John Dix 346ppCursory Observations on the Poems attributed to Thomas Rowley, a Priest of the Fifteenth Century [1782]Edmund Malone 66ppAn Essay on the Evidence, External and Internal, relating to the Poems attributed to Thomas Rowley [1783]Thomas James Mathias 130ppA Vindication of the Appendix to the Poems, called Rowley's, in reply to the Answers of the Dean of Exeter, Jacob Bryant [1782]Thomas Tyrwhitt 232ppAn Enquiry into the Authenicity of the Poems attributed to Thomas Rowley [1782]Thomas Warton 128ppA Letter to the Editor of the Miscellanies of Thomas Chatterton[1799]Horace Walpole 58pp

Little, Brown Book Group Summer of Our Discontent
Book SynopsisIn this provocative book, Thomas Chatterton Williams, one of the most revered and reviled social commentators of our time, paints a clear and detailed picture of the ideas and events that have paved the way for the dramatic paradigm shift in social justice that has taken place over the past few years. Taking aim at the ideology of critical race theory, the rise of an oppressive social media, the fall from Obama to Trump, and the twinned crises of COVID-19 and the murder of George Floyd, Williams documents the extent to which this transition has altered media, artistic creativity, education, employment, policing, and, most profoundly, the ambient language and culture we use to make sense of our lives.Williams also decries how liberalism - the very foundation of an open and vibrant society - is in existential crisis, under assault from both the right and the left, especially in our predominantly networked, Internet-driven monoculture.Sure to be highly controversial, Summer of Our Discontent is a compelling look at our place in a radically changing world.

Carcanet Press Ltd Selected Poems: Thomas Chatterton
Book SynopsisWordsworth's lines on Thomas Chatterton (1752-1770) contributed to a legend that became better known than Chatterton's work itself. His story is moving: a sensitive, unhappy boy, he fell in love with the medieval world and escaped into it from miserable schooling and the drudgery of apprenticeship. He read and then wrote "medieval" poetry which he passed off as genuine. When the poems he wrote in his own name brought him some success, he went to London to seek his fortune as a writer. After six months' struggle, too proud to admit defeat, starving and alone, he killed himself in his attic room. He was seventeen. There is more to Chatterton than the romantic archetype. His poetry was admired by Keats, Shelley, Coleridge and Wordsworth; as Grevel Lindop says in his introduction, "Chatterton's work contains in essence the whole of Romanticism". This selection, with its detailed notes, shows the historical significance and unexpected range of Chatterton's poetry, and also enables the reader to enjoy it for its rich resonance and wonderfully memorable rhythms.

John Murray Press Self-Portrait in Black and White: Unlearning Race
Book SynopsisA SUNDAY TIMES BOOK OF THE YEAR A TIME 'MUST-READ' 'An extraordinarily thought-provoking memoir that makes a controversial contribution to the fraught debate on race and racism . . . intellectually stimulating and compelling' SUNDAY TIMESA reckoning with the way we choose to see and define ourselves, Self-Portrait in Black and White is the searching story of one American family's multi-generational transformation from what is called black to what is assumed to be white. Thomas Chatterton Williams, the son of a 'black' father from the segregated South and a 'white' mother from the West, spent his whole life believing the dictum that a single drop of 'black blood' makes a person black. This was so fundamental to his self-conception that he'd never rigorously reflected on its foundations - but the shock of his experience as the black father of two extremely white-looking children led him to question these long-held convictions.It is not that he has come to believe that he is no longer black or that his daughter is white, Williams notes. It is that these categories cannot adequately capture either of them - or anyone else, for that matter. Beautifully written and bound to upset received opinions on race, Self-Portrait in Black and White is an urgent work for our time.Trade ReviewThis book brings a blast of fresh air that will change your thinking about race * George Packer, author of The Unwinding *There have been a slew of books this year about racism and white privilege, pretty much saying the same thing at different volumes of indignation. This slim book is different. A mixed-race American, Thomas Chatterton Williams had to rethink what being black meant when he held his baby daughter for the first time: she was blonde, blue-eyed and pale-skinned. This humane essay is an attempt to move beyond our obsession with race and skin colour * The Times (Saturday Review), Politics and Current Affairs Book of the Year 2020 *[Williams] is so honest and fresh in his observations, so skillful at blending his own story with larger principles, that it is hard not to admire him. At a time of increasing division, his philosophizing evinces an underlying generosity. He reaches both ways across the aisle of racism, arguing above all for reciprocity, and in doing so begins to theorize the temperate peace of which all humanity is sorely in need * New York Times Book Review *An elegantly rendered and trenchantly critical reflection on 'race' and identity: one that is perfectly suited to our time. This is a subtle, unsettling, and brave book * Glenn Loury, professor of economics and faculty fellow, Watson Institute, Brown University *An energizing book by one of the greatest writers of our time * Yascha Mounk, author of The People vs. Democracy *A standout memoir that digs into vital contemporary questions of race and self-image . . . succeeds spectacularly for three main reasons: the author's relentlessly investigative thought process, consistent candor, and superb writing style. Almost every page contains at least one sentence so resonant that it bears rereading for its impact . . . An insightful, indispensable memoir * Kirkus (starred review) *A provocative philosophical argument about the role of race in human identity . . . intellectually rigorous, written in fluid prose, and frequently exhilarating * Publishers Weekly (starred) *An elegant and sharp-eyed writer . . . In a publishing environment where analyses of race tend to call out white fragilities and catalogue historical injustices, Self-Portrait in Black and White is a counterintuitive, courageous addition * Washington Post *A fluent, captivating, if often disquieting story . . . We witness Williams on a journey of both self-discovery and self-creation, and his memoir is most valuable as a way deeper into, as opposed to a way out of, race talk * Harper's *An extraordinarily thought-provoking memoir that makes a controversial contribution to the fraught debate on race and racism . . . This book certainly takes the reader on an intellectually stimulating journey and makes a compelling case for a postracial future * Sunday Times *This humane essay is an attempt to move beyond our obsession with race and skin colour * The Times *
