The collection is sourced from the remarkable library of Victor Amadeus, whose Castle Corvey collection was one of the most spectacular discoveries of the late 1970s. The Corvey Collection comprises one of the most important collections of Romantic era writing in existence anywhere -- including fiction, short prose, dramatic works, poetry, and more -- with a focus on especially difficult-to-find works by lesser-known, historically neglected writers. The Corvey library was built during the last half of the 19th century by Victor and his wife Elise, both bibliophiles with varied interests. The collection thus contains everything from novels and short stories to belles lettres and more populist works, and includes many exceedingly rare works not available in any other collection from the period. These invaluable, sometimes previously unknown works are of particular interest to scholars and researchers. European Literature, 1790-1840: The Corvey Collection includes: * Novels and Gothic Novels * Short Stories * Belles-Lettres * Short Prose Forms * Dramatic Works * Poetry * Anthologies * And more Selected with the guidance of an international team of expert advisors, these primary sources are invaluable for a wide range of academic disciplines and areas of study, providing never before possible research opportunities for one of the most studied historical periods.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Excerpt from Thomas A Becket: A Dramatic Chronicle; In Five Acts When men had still about them all the vigour of their primitive life, and all the enthusiasm of commencing civilisation - such an era by natural consequence teemed with characters, enterprises, vicissitudes, &c., dramatic because so pregnant with individualism and with action. I have adopted without scruple the rough, bold features of these times, wherever, like rocks and cataracts in a landscape, they appeared to give the scene poetical impressiveness. If they realised, as it were, those times to myself while ruminating over them, I supposed they would have a like effect upon the reader. He will recollect, however, the popular distinction between History and Chronicle, - the latter admitting a degree of romance and inter mixture of tradition, besides a picturesque enrichment by materials which are Splendid rubbish to the mere annalist, but to the dramatist most precious. Though preserving the general line and sequence of facts as they happened, I have subordinated them, of poetic right.
