 Series
Reference Code: GBR/0012/MS Add.9451/2

Scope and Contents

Drafts and proofs of poems written by Anne Stevenson, along with preliminaries (e.g. title page, preface, acknowledgements page, table of contents, etc) and notes sections, which have been grouped together. These groupings mostly represent her published collections, such as Reversals and Granny Scarecrow, but also includes groupings of poems for unpublished collections, submissions for poetry anthologies, and submissions to magazines.

The poems and accompanying preliminaries and notes in this series are mostly typescript or word-processed in form, and they feature annotations in Stevenson's hand.

Arrangement

This series has been arranged in both chronological and publication/proposed publication date order; the latter taking primarcy due to the majority of files relating to published poetry collections. As such, the sub-series and its files relating to the 2020 collection, Completing the Circle, have been placed at the end of the series, even though there are drafts that pre-date several other publications.

See sub-level descriptions for further information on arrangement decisions.
