Description
This text gathers together all of John Clare’s autobiographical writing. The book extends, corrects and replaces the “Autobiographical Writings of John Clare”, edited by Eric Robinson (Oxford, 1983). Clare’s “Journal” is set beside “Sketches” and “Autobiographical Fragments”, as well as his “Journey Out of Essex”. Extracts from his asylum letters are included, his will, and two maps of Clare’s countryside and his “Journey”.
