    Series Statement: Writers and their work
    Content: Edward Lear wrote a well-known autobiographical poem that begins 'How pleasant to know Mr Lear!' But how well do we really know him? On the one hand he is, in John Ashbery's words, 'one of the most popular poets who ever lived'; on the other hand he has often been overlooked or marginalized by scholars and in literary histories. James Williams's account, the first book-length critical study of the poet since the 1980s, sets out to re-introduce Lear and to accord him his proper place: as a major Victorian figure of continuing appeal and relevance, and especially as a poet of beauty, comedy, and profound ingenuity. Williams approaches Lear's work thematically, tracing some of its most fundamental subjects and situations. Grounded in attentive close readings, Williams also connects Lear's nonsense with his various other creative endeavours: as a zoological illustrator and landscape painter, a travel writer, and a prolific diarist and correspondent.

    Series Statement: Edinburgh companion to literature and the humanities
    Content: Provides a wide-ranging account of the different disciplinary, critical and theoretical contexts relevant to the study of nonsense. Includes new perspectives on canonical nonsense worksOffers a provocative revaluation of theories and definitions of nonsense, urging an understanding of the term as relevant to a broad range of cultural forms and textsIncludes essays by a collection of internationally recognised scholars working on nonsense and related fields. Aims to set the agenda for nonsense scholarship and to open up avenues for future research. The Edinburgh Companion to Nonsense is the first comprehensive treatment of its subject across historical periods, languages, cultures, and theoretical frameworks. Written by scholars in a range of disciplines from philosophy to music as well as literary critics and linguists, it provides the first overview of nonsense as a vital dimension of human creativity, drawing on insights from theology to queer studies, from India to Russia, and from Ancient Greece to the late modernism of the twentieth century. Responding to a growing interest in nonsense within the academy and reflecting the diversity of understandings that the term inspires, this book aims to advance nonsense as a developing critical field, and to inspire new areas of research
