    • From the Introduction to the Second Edition: "Whenever possible, the original critics have revised and updated their essays as appropriate; when this has not proved possible, new critics have been enlisted. In some cases, the article's bibliography has been updated or a few paragraphs have been added, but in many cases, the original articles have been extensively revised or completely rewritten in order to take advantage of recent critical biographical discoveries and in order to provide a unified critical approach to their subjects."
