Fresh Manuscript Sources for a Life of William Congreve

View through CrossRef
No major English writer contemporary with William Congreve has left such scant information about himself. Biographers have feared, as Edmund Gosse tells us in 1888, that “the opportunity for preparing a full and picturesque life of this poet has wholly passed away.” When Gosse revised his life of Congreve in 1924, he found that the intervening thirty-five years had added practically nothing to our knowledge.
