Comments :
- Karen Swallow Prior's edition is very thorough in identifying references to Classical, Biblical, and Contemporary (19th century) literature; the "Reflection Questions" after each major section ("Phases" in Hardy's terminology) are also helpful. Readers interested in more detailed literary analysis should also consider the Norton Critical Editions versions.
